The newer version (475) of the Tripod I have (075) has click stops on 
the leg supports. This makes it very easy to set the three legs the same 
distance out. I've made a gauge from a piece of scrap steel. It goes 
into the tube and each support is closed until it stops; then the thumb 
nut is tightened. Its very easy to do -- but a click stop would be nice. 
I thought of drilling holes for pins, but that would weaken the 
supports. Why do I want to do this? I'm planning small panoramas.
