I cannot thank you enough for posting this video. I fished 3 of those black pieces out of one leg (lol) and finally put it back together correctly! I truly appreciate you taking the time to show how it’s done!!

Wow!! Thank you so much! After 2 weeks of annoyance and frustration, trying to fix the middle pole of my Mactrem Tripod, your video helped me put it back correctly!! Your awesome! Thank YOU!!!!! ✨

I bought a MeFoto tripod and really liked it until two of the legs fell out. I refused to throw it away and I was lucky enough to find your video and now the legs shims are replaced. Thank you so much, you saved me $200.00.

I knou you made this video 4 years ago but THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I cannot thank you enough for making it. One of the volunteers at church took a leg too far and I didn't know how to put it together. I took a chance on KZread having the answer and you did! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I just fixed it.

I only had my tripod for a week and used it 2 times. Of course I was careful, but once I needed to rely on it I overextended one of the legs. Thank you so much for posting this video!! Saved me so much time!!

Fixed the center pole on my EEKTO tripod, in nearly less time than it took to watch the video. No duct tape, no drills, none of the stuff I saw on the other sites. Just a simple process and my tripod is back in working order. THANK YOU!

Glad to hear it!

Thanks...worked like a magician. Somehow I pulled that shim out, and put it back together. You're awesome.

Thanks...the grove in the tube was the answer. Cleaning sand from my very expensive Gitzo tripod.

Oh man, thx so much. I didn’t realise there were little guides up inside the tubes for the shims to line up to and I was going mad trying to get it to work. You’re a legend.

Same here, for 2 years! Annoyed and happy at the same time now after watching this 🙂

Thanks so much! I thought I'd never be able to use my tripod again :( Your explanation of both the hose clamp and the plastic collet enabled me to fix it!

Indeed, really helpful, thanks! Just helped a man with Gitzo in a Portuguese hotel room.

Thank you for this! I've been suffering with 1 annoying leg on my Manfrotto Elements for 2 years. Fixed it in about 30 seconds. Thank you!!

You've saved me from eternal frustration! God bless you man!!

I am so grateful that you took the time to post this video. Thank you so much.

I was ready to throw my monopod away. Thank you!

I was about to go super Saiyan but then i found this, tsm!

YOU'RE A LIFESAVER!!!! Thanks! 😊

Man this video is heaven sent! Thanks!

Massive help! Thanks 🙏

Loads of thanks 🙏

ThAnk you much for this video. I thought my befree Live was broken for good when the leg detached 8 minutes before the New Year 2021 celebrations....crap...I wasnt able to use it for the night but thanks to this video It is good to go again. What a year 2020 was I thought....8 minutes to go and my carbon fibre tripod I havent used at all broke! LOL

You sir are awesome thank you done in 5 minutes thought it was broken lol. Great video keep up the good work! :)

Thank you so much buddy. You saved my day

Thank you.

You saved me. Thank you!

Fucking thank you man, you have no idea how much i needed this 😂

Excellent, thank you.

Thanks!! That saved me!

Wow thank you so much , you saved me!

Thank you!!!!

Those black plastic pieces are called ferrules, I think.

Thanks for the film. On my tripod, the shims seem to have gotten out of order. It seems the thicker, slightly larger one has to go into the bigger segment first, with the thinner one following. Go figger.

Thanks for demonstrating how to put the legs back on this tripod. Now my big problem is I have lost the shims out in the field. Can you advise where you get more shims and the black pieces? I have search everywhere it seems with no luck.

Same here, did you ever find a set?

Would these techniques work on a pro Miller pod legs ?

dude thank you

What happens if you lost the twist lock. I can't find the replacement.

What if one leg is completely stuck and doesn't move at all?

I tried fixing my old tri pod when I broke it's leg and I couldn't fix it and I broke the top recently and I just went ahead and got a new one

Where do I get the shins?

What we do if the black piece is damaged

Where can I buy the black plastic piece? or what is it called?

You may need to use a hanger and bend the end into a hook to reach up in and get the shims out. Send an email for more help to support@stradadesigns.com
