Be very careful.</div><div><br></div><div>The crank up version of these peds was underneath the first television cameras I got to have hands-on with circa 1967-69 used a couple of the crank-up versions of these peds. </div><div><br></div><div>The cameras were cylindrical Dage black and white vidicon cameras, and the peds handled those well without being "tippy" as I recall. But there wasn't a lot of weight on them.</div><div><br></div><div>One had a viewfinder, "reach around" zoom lens (try doing both simultaneously with one hand) and low-cost version of the cradle heads like you usually see under TK-41s. The other had a remotely controlled Pan/Tilt head with remote Zoom and Focus.</div><div><br></div><div>As I said, the pedestals were fine for lightweight camera gear... but a TK-11/31 weight camera with the wheel legs all the way retracted might be a chancy situation.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope this helps.</div><div><br></div><div>Ted</div><br><div><div>On May 19, 2012, at 6:03 PM, <a href="mailto:COURYHOUSE@aol.com">COURYHOUSE@aol.com</a> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">

<div>Dave - they seem to want to flip as soon as you pull the pin! </div>

<div>The secret of this dolly is that the base can get really small
and go though our old hysterical I mean historic building doors and out
into the street during events.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I could widen it out once outdoors but with weight on it
the wheels would love to flip sidewise when I pull the
lock pin.. perhaps a block to slide under it when de pining it and
repeating for the other 2 legs?</div>
