Home Made Tripod
A tripod is very handy tool for camera or other works. we can build one very easily at home with no single money. here I will guide you to build one from some useless materials found easily around us.
Materials
Find some wood 1 cm thick. Better to use some strong wood such as rose wood. Here I am using rose wood because I have lots of it lying.
Find some screws. We will need six of them. Printers are good source of screws so find one.
Steel rods. Again get these from old printers. I am using the rods that I took from HP printer. Cut them in 12cm length. three in numbers.
Black coloured plastic pen. Get two pen.
Some nails. I used nails to attach rods to wood through plastic pen. you can use screws for it.
Black marker pen.
Some clear paint such as polyrethine.

Wood Work
