I think I'll probably go with a nicer one but just getting ideas right now. They say they hold up to 125 pounds. I don't have a rig, but I Imagine there is the weight of the rig and since the bar is so long the torque and moment about the suction cups becomes pretty significant. Enough that I wouldn't want my $5000 investment dangling from a $5 suction cup. Dan, www.dandexterphotography.com

I have 2 of these sitting at home, and am contemplating building a test rig with them, they should be alright, as long as you dont use them on a drifting rig like StE823's Eh! ça va la vache?

I used the same system as StE823 (thanks for the idea!), and am pretty happy with the limited verticle bounce... now to solve the front/back swaying...

JFP-Photography Member 126 posts Joined Nov 2009 More info | Jun 09, 2010 09:49 | #3716 Quick question. I'm going to go with 3-5foot sections (2OD 1.25) and was going to machine the ends so they could thread together. Now my question is: should I bump up the OD on the metal couplers(that will thread into the pole) or the thickness??
