Has anyone done some DIY projects on camera gear to try save themselves the dollar? I've got my eye on a Megamast or Photomast but the prices are, frankly, extortionate. I'm tempted to go down the DIY route. Now obviously I've got to weigh up the fact that if I do a botch job that there's potentially £3,000 worth of kit falling to the earth at an alarming rate. That'll be enough to break it and, even worse, seriously injure someone.
That said, it's clearly doable because these things do exist already. Has anyone tried something something like making their own tripod (normal size) without too much bother? I have a few family members who are tricky with DIY but this might be a bit too much.
