Tripods

I am looking for a heavy duty tripod to carry an Az mount for use with a refractor. Somethin like a stellarvue M2, giro2 or Unistar delux. Wondering if anyone had experience with any of these and what to buy locally. Stellarvue's M2 can be used with Manfrotto tripods but these look expensive for the weight carrying ability. Especially when Oberwork surveyors tripods can hold a lot more weight and look far more stable. It will probably only need to handle 8kg but i'm a fan of more is better theory.
