Here's a picture of my adapter for a 1/4-20 tripod thread on the bottom
of a center column

Perhaps you can find an eyehook with a 1/4-20 thread. This would be made to use with a pair of nuts to hold through a hole and provide a hook. I suppose it would look like a "?" with a 1/4-20 thread at the non-curved end. You might want to use a 1/4-20 hex nut as a 'jam-nut' to hold it secure in the bottom end of the column. < This message was delivered via the Olympus Mailing List > < For questions, mailto:owner-olympus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > < Web Page: http://Zuiko.sls.bc.ca/swright/olympuslist.html > |
