I've been searching for over an hour and I can't find the thread that I'm looking for. (But I would be willing to bet that JSR can find it within 10 seconds

).
I'm looking for a picture of a tripod that another member build a while ago. I'm fairly certain that it was built out of 2x4's and it had a cylindrical assembly where all of the legs met. I also think that the gun mounted on it was some a medium-sized over/under type cannon.
Any help finding it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help from both of you, that is the one I was looking for. A tripod like that will make a great stand for the 6mm sentry that I'm building.

Of course
I'm going to attempt the arduino controlled version that Poland_Spud posted a link to in your sentry project thread.

Good luck with it

I'm back to the drawing board with mine, decided to swing back to 3mm calibre.

Thanks, I'm going to need all the help I can get with this project. I have most of the hardware portion figured out already, but the software end is the part that I'm not very familiar with. I am learning a lot though.
