I would like, if I may, ask you to measure the spread angle of your tripod, be it Meade, Celestron, Skywatcher, Orion, AP, SB, or whatever.

I just need the angle of a leg from vertical, so if you have an inclinometer, or a smartphone with clinometer app, could you please hold it against a tripod leg and post your measurement?

I'm conflicted about the optimal spread of an astro tripod, and would like some data beyond what I have around the house.

Cheers
Steffen.
