Abstract
An object support includes a support base and at least two legs. The support base includes at least two leg yokes and an insert boss. Each leg includes a retention projection and at least one tubular leg section. A fastener or the like is inserted through the retention projection and the leg yoke to retain the leg relative to the support base. A set-screw or the like is threaded through a top of the support base to limit the angular travel of the tubular leg relative to the support base. A spring loaded retention pin is retained in the insert boss. An object support insert includes an object insert pin and an accessory retention device. A ball detent preferably extends radially from an end of the object insert pin. A retention groove is formed in a perimeter of the object insert pin for engagement with the retention pin.
