I might as well just buy one then. I could make it worse trying to fix it.

Same except that in addition to "I could make it worse trying to fix it" would be "I'll end up wasting hours on end trying to fix it" and "after wasting a bunch of time on it, I'll probably still end up just replacing it because my 'fix' wasn't a complete fix".

It didn't take that long other than a trip to the hardware store, and I needed to get some other things there anyway.

We will see how long the fix lasts. The spring pin only cost about 30 cents. 


Historic boundaries and conservation efforts.

@not-my-real-name Outstanding.  Hopefully it will be a long lasting fix.  30 cents and a little time is certainly worthwhile compared with a new bi-pod.

Much easier to fine adjust and doesn't bang on the pole when walking between marks.

That is exaclty what they do. My hands are full and the distance is short, so I don't stap them down. There I go, 'clang' 'clang' clang'.
