Vintage Wood Tripods

About 9 years ago I bought a couple vintage wood tripods off ebay. They're 2 of my favorite things I own. One I actually use, (when we have our stuff) as an accessory, in my living room with one of my vintage folding cameras on it and the other I had my husband wire into a lamp. I know you can buy tripod lamps, but to use an authentic vintage wood tripod is not only cost effective, but also more unique. Oh, and since the legs are telescoping you could use it at varying heights.

Here is one I found on ebay that is very similar to mine and a few ideas on how to use it.
