[photo-3d] Twinned rig level



I use a pair of Minolta slr's on a bar and I have developed a way of 
holding them which - for me - gives a very level bed.
I have a small (6") tripod which collapses into itself to become a 
tube.
I screw this into the bar and drop it into the crook of my left elbow.
If I now bring my left hand up to grasp my right shoulder, my upper 
left arm and elbow are level with my left shoulder.
Try it without a camera and you will see what I mean.
Just bring your hand up and put it on your shoulder.
The collapsed mini-tripod  sits in my elbow bend and the two 
camera's are very level.
If anyone is interested, I have a photograph showing what I mean 
that I can send you in an email.
Let me know, because having just re-read that, it sounds VERY 
complicated indeed, when in fact it isn't.
