Markus,
My compass (needle and gray-green housing) came from some military scrapyard, looong time ago ('70-ies?).. but everything else is DIY.
Precipice is retaining wall, less than 1m high, I just wanted tripod to be on stable surface (concrete pavement, positions for 2 legs are marked with chisel) and to have easy access to polar finder eyepiece.
The third leg is sitting in the hole of the 3/4" water pipe, hammered 25cm into ground (not visible on pictures because of the grass) - so every time I set it up, already have rough alignment.).
Cheers,
B
