Need borrow tripod for Wet Collodion Workshop at V&A

This is a thread posted by a Mr Mark Osterman under the Gear section over at the Large Format Forum, if anyone is interested/and/or able to help.

Hello,

My wife and I are scheduled to give a wet collodion ambrotype workshop at the Victoria and Albert Museum this coming week and our source for a large format tripod didn't work out. We're traveling as light as we can and aren't bringing one with us. Is there anyone in the London area who could loan us a sturdy tripod from Monday late afternoon to Thursday late afternoon?

Also, if there is anyone in the London area interested in the use of collodion for fine art photography, we'll be giving a lecture at the Minnie Weisz Gallery next Saturday.

Please respond through our email rather than this forum regarding the tripod sculloster@gmail.com

My very best regards,

I thought this may be of interest to some. I can get a tripod to them at trhe V&A on Monday, but am not around on Thursday or after to retrieve it.

I have heard back from Mark, things are sorted, they got what they needed. Indeed, it was for this week, but also next as well.
