The SPIG - 1420 VAL Spigot
Mini Pin Adaptor

Designed by a photographer for photographers

I designed The SPIG to provide a viable alternative to industry produced boom poles. The SPIG (aka 1420 VAL Spigot) is designed to work in line and at 90° to a standard painters extension pole and any number of tools/accessories available from DIY & hardware stores including bar clamps & locking pliers.

The SPIG is machined from a solid bar of high quality aluminium and light enough to be carried as part of standard camera lighting kit. It will fit any tube or bar from 16 - 19mm 3/4" diameter and 1/4"20 TPI threaded accessories.

What they say

"Great product Ian! It was used on my last photo 'Kilcunda' and much more comfortable for the assistant than holding light stands. It's a very well designed and made product."
