Why would you spend £34 on a monstrous great tripod for your camping dish when you can bang a bit of scaffold pole in the ground for nothing?!?!

What a mate of mine did, was turn an old telescopic line into a tripod, cut it down and then turned it upside down.

Looks the bollocks

£15000 on a caravan, or £4000 on a 2.4mtr Gregorian ChannelMaster with install.

No real contest.
