Gallows mount

Hi Matt and Dave,

Thanks for the replies. That makes sense now with what you are saying. I'm guessing the weight is a piece the inner diameter of the outer pipe? Does this counter-balance the weight of the Bren?

That is, is there some sort of locking arrangement for the cable or does it just work solely off the weight at either end?

Matt - if you can post some close up photos, that would be appreciated please. That will allow me to get my head around it a bit more.
