The Uniloc range of tripods are very similar to the Benbo range, they are designed and made by the original designer of the Benbo but are superior in build quality.

Thanks. I had suspected as much. I disassembled my Uniloc 1600 and thought the design was simple but very functional.
Stephen: if you want to truly engage in tripod lust, check out Sachtler tripods. Or maybe you had better not for the sake of your family!
