The counterweight bar now has a flat ground into it that allows dual-mount mode without the threat of the c/w bar rotating as the factory screw is nearly useless....

The itty-bitty factory clamping screw has been replaced with an industrial strength M12 HT clamping lever.... (the lever handle was a bit long so out with the hacksaw, etch primer and satin black epoxy..)

The custom DewBuster Controller is now fitted to the top of the mount using a Polemaster adapter making for easy removal and less stuff hanging off the mount...

Looking good Matt,

It is an impressive setup!
