CED Big Board on a tripod?

[Truckin_Thumper]

I recently picked up a new CED Timer as I need to learn it, all the local places use them over any other brand. 

While buying that, I got the BigBoard combo. 

Using it at a match this weekend, I realized, I need a better way to prop it up. So, I ordered a tripod (needed it for the cell cam anyways). 

Now I need to figure out how to mate the two. 

Any ideas?

Don't own one or even seen one in person but looking at the photo, seems like you could take a piece of lumber that will fit across the bottom and snugly into between the legs. Then insert a threaded coupling into the center of the piece of lumber that will attached to the tripod head.

 

Hope I'm making sense.

the legs are clip on and not very conducive to sturdy mounting. 

I think some JB weld may be in order

Remove the legs. Use a 2x4 and two bar clamps. Buy a threaded insert (check your tripod threading) and drill it into the wood.

You can also try one of these. Just make sure it fits the dimensions. I use one of these to hold an iPad on the tripod.

I *think I have this problem solved. 

I have a ton of RAM Mount products and have used them in a LOT of applications. 

They have a mobile printer cradle they may just fit the bill 
I also have a slight stock of ram arms and bases, but has to order the camera ball. 
About $45 shipped for this stuff, so we will see how it works

well, it worked, sort of. I had to flip one bracket so it would hold. 
I think it will be just fine and is pretty daggon neat.
