I found this old camera tripod (shell) in my closet. I had taken the ball head off years back to use on my kayak for a camera mount. I took it to camp last week and put it in my ground blind as it was...One use and I realized it needed some mods

SO I brought it back home to make some changes to it.
A hacksaw, a bucket full of PVC stuff, a can of glue, and a can of spray paint, I have a very functional gun rest and video camera mount
The little "U" on the right side will be a place to rest my gun barrel, and the horizontal piece up top will be a spot to mount my video camera
It's fully adjustable L/R as well as up/down
Gonna add some camo duct tape to all the upper PVC to deaden sound and make it softer as well as a bit more camo
This will stay in my ground blind and, along with my arm chair in there, should make it like shooting off a bench as I can shoot almost 200 yards from this spot

What size pop up blind are you using? This is a great idea but I am not sure if I would have the room. I know my 1 man would not work but maybe my doghouse blind.
