Abstract:
Tripod Holder is a device that consists of two supports that are secured to a chest (or footlocker). One support holds the tripod base, and the other support holds the tripod legs. Both supports are secured to the bottom and sides of the chest. One support is fixed with a T-nut from the back; thus using the tripod base's own bolt (that secures the tripod's base to the scope mount), the bolt can be used to secure the tripod's base to one support. Once the tripod based is fixed, the three legs extend out and rest on the other support at multiple contact points. The 10-degree angle of the tripod base's support allows the legs to rest slightly to the top of the chest maximizing available space in the chest. With these two supports securing the tripod legs, via a strap, the legs do not disturb the other scope parts inside the chest, allowing for secure storage during travel.
