Nice porn!!! Tastefully done!!!I'll never be able to touch Dan Lindberg when it comes to tripod porn, but that won't stop me from trying!
Recently put together double rig for shooting film and digital at the same time, the beauty is that I can use the same lenses in different combinations to match the FoV roughly between the two formats.

Thanks dude, it’s your turn now :grin:Nice porn!!! Tastefully done!!!
Ha, now that looks familiarWith tips from EJ and general encouragement from the participants ("enablers") in this thread, I have now modified both my Arca-Swiss p0 Hybrid and L60 Leveler heads with RRS B2-40-LR quick-release clamps and the Graham Welland Tripod Head Quick Release System. Thread locker (aka Loctite) is no match for an Allen wrench in the tight grip of Vise-Grip pliers. :thumbup:

You do, but it was a little tricky for me. The AS clamp has two pins that register the thin top plate so it aligns and the little ball falls directly into the hole as it spins around. I used the clamp I had on my BH40, perhaps there are other RRS clamps the come with registration pins? IDK.Serious question: do you still maintain the 90 degree panning detents on the L60 with the new top clamp?
John
Yes but you have to make sure that the tiny little ball bearing doesn't go flying off when you take off the stock clamp. That is its only function and is nearly microscopic in size - if it drops on a carpet, it is likely gone forever. The registration pins are irrelevant with this mod as none of the RRS clamps can receive them. Instead you just need to make sure that you are in one of the detents with the tiny ball bearing and the clamp is set to either a zero degree or 90 degree mark when you lock down the clamp with an allen key. Even if you don't do that, you still get the detents, they just don't occur at 0, 90, 180, etc on the scale. It's pretty obvious what you need to do when you have it apart.Joe,

The one that I used is the B2-40-LR-M6. Joe used the same one.Which RRS clamp would be the one to order for the L60?
This one with 1/4-20 flathead screw B2-40 LR Quick-Release Clamp
Or this one with Metric 6 flathead screw: B2-40 LR Quick-Release Clamp
Would this bigger clamp fit as well?: B2 AS II Quick-Release Clamp (also comes with Metric 6 flathead screw)
Thanks

I ordered it directly from Rod Klukas:Does anyone know where the Arca Swiss Quick Link is available for purchase?
Steve,Well, right from your friends at CI, though we haven't yet added that item to our db.com site:
https://www.digitalback.com/product-category/arca-swiss/
I don't know that we have stock of the Quick Link (I had AM pinky toe surgery so not in office), but even if we do not, we would order direct from Rod anyway.
