One problem I found was that the Gitzo platform would easily turn sideways if bumped because there wasn't enough friction even with the knob fastened very tightly. I ended up cutting a square of old bicycle tire with a tiny hole to slide over the screw, then I placed the rubber patch over the plate before tightening the screw. The rubber introduced enough friction to securely hold the plate without any sideways movement. Incidentally, the velcro on my macbook is now always getting stuck on table tops or sofas, where ever there's fabric when I lay it down :-)<br /><br />-Steven Erat<br />Boston Portrait Photographer<br />http://www.stevenerat.com/Steven Erathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04646782235320982976noreply@blogger.com
