in this way I avoid the cost to create worms inside the pipes for the joints (less is more) and I can take pipes with a lower wall thickness and therefore less weight.
someone told me but where I put a unique 650mm rail, my answer, in a neoprene bag that I provide and attach it to a leg of the tripod, and unless someone uses tripod that when closed measure 40cm (I see it hard in the LF), the rail does not bother you in that position.
