In putting together the VSC "North Star" Field Tripod, an eclectic assortment of hardware parts were instituted, which are conveyed in the photo above. The collection is comprised of Washers, Lock Washers, Bolts for the Accessory Tray, Carriage Bolts to connect the legs to the Pan-Head, Eye-Bolts threaded into concealed T-Nuts which push against Strap Hinges to secure the legs when extended, and different sized Wood & Drywall Screws used with adhesive to create the three tripod legs. Most of the hardware purchased for this project are Zinc coated. If cost is not a factor, Stainless Steel parts can be used throughout instead. The choice is yours.
