I always wear an old pair of hob-nailed climbing boots on nicely varnished floors anyway - that way I won't slip and they won't blame the tripod spikes. But otherwise, I too use the reversible leg Ries J tripod, though it's not really heavy enough for my 8x10 system per se. The ole Zone VI tripod was just a modified
relatively cheap survey tripod. Mine would freeze up (literally) in cold rain, so I gave it away to a wannabee astronomer.
