Tripod legs £££

Post by NicBeeee »

Not sure if anyone else has tried this, as I am still trying to keep most of the interior of the van demountable I have always fancied a set of the fiamma tripod table legs. However I thing they are a little overpriced so I have been head scratching as to what else to use. Then I thought about drum stools, if they can take the weight of full grown drummer then I am sure they can handle a couple of beers and a bolougnese. I was amazed to see them for sale as cheep as chips and a lot better engineered than fiamma, comes complete with leg and fully adjustable, might need some mods to get the height, some of the chromed ones look neat too. Will let you know how we get on.

The Fiamma are expensive but I find them so useful. A stylish alternative would be good to see though.

Looks good too, I have just tested ours on a tour of Brittany and can verify that it can take several bottles of cider and a couple of crepes.
