Someone gave our museum a C-8 8" SCT. I thought I'd set it up, but
immediately found a bolt extending from the tripod top without any apparent
way to place the wedge on it. I noticed a long vertical shaft under the
platform, and discovered one can raise a center pole up through the top. It
has the bolt on the top. Maybe it'll dawn on me how to put this together,
but I find this rather surprising. Can anyone give a clue as to why it's
designed this way?
