Hi Matt, is it difficult to separate the tubing from the tripod fittings? I'm thinking of doing this tripod mod and leaving the CGEM (which I just bought from Ian) set up semi permanently with a Telegizmo 365 cover.
I had in mind to make a heavy duty wooden tripod in lieu of a pier, but your mod might be simpler. I'd leave the lower fittings off and just the stainless legs would be exposed to the weather.
