I could swear it was on WB were I saw an ingenious method for a DIY trekking pole mount for a camera.

Once again, the search feature leaves me without an accurate answer. Lots of hits, none about what I'm looking for.

Anyone steer me to the thread (if indeed it was here that I saw it).

The one I'm thinking of used a commonly found clamp to customize a mount.

Thanks

The one I was thinking of works on the shaft of the pole like the stickpic, but was a DIY version made with a small clamp.
Thanks for the help though

Found this one on a Google search. Maybe it is something you could use.

I also made my own stick pic with a small hose clamp and a bolt.
