I've recently got hold of a Berlebach tripod and they supply a metal chain to fasten on to the legs - the cord seems more elegant / easier and quicker to adjust and it doesn't make you sound like the Marley's Ghost from Scrooge when you walk ;-)
I can get hold of some cord if needed but am having a bit of trouble typing a decent term into the web to describe the adjuster block to find a supplier - it's not the same as a tent guy rope adjuster as it takes both cords. It looks like something you'd use to keep your 10-gallon hat on but a bit more solid - any ideas?
Thanks,
Andrew
UK - so not easy / cheap to get hold of Ries stuff...
