Hi everyone,I just ordered a set of BRT wind flags from Butch at shadetree engineering and they don't come with stands. I thought an inexpensive camera tripod might be good,adjustable height and plumb.What do you think, recommend?
 
Most people use music stands at about $10 each. If you can get a tripod in that price range, it might give you more adjustment.
 
Light stands used in photography are another option. Most come with a 1/4-20 threaded top.

I've been using the 7ft stands from here:

As an existing customer, they send out promotional emails. The latest is coupon code TENPZZAZ9 to get a 10% discount through 7/31.

My last order from them, with the discount, ended up being less than $20 per stand shipped.
 
I also modify my stands so I can plumb them:

Using this, and 8" pieces of 1/2" round steel:

Thanks for the responses all. I found something that will work.
