DIY Bottle Cap Tripod: Step-by-step instructions on creating your own camera tripod by Jake Ludington. Inspired by this.
Update: Jake Ludington said (see comments section)
It's more sturdy than you think. An empty bottle would tip easily, but adding water (or using the Pepsi in the bottle) as balast adds a decent counterbalance for fairly large point-and-shoot cameras. I tested it with both the Digital Elph series camera pictured and a much larger G series Canon.
Gosh! Looks like it's going to tip over anytime.

ReplyDeletehmmm.. I might just try and make this. So cool!
ReplyDeleteI think using sand is better than water though.
