Lowers the overall volume levels for noisy sound sources, e.g. when you plug in your earphones on an aircraft to watch a movie, then when the crew make a PA announcement you don't bust your eardrums
A trio of tripods with built-in bullseye levels used for leveling the tripod by adjusting the length of its legs.
If the tripod is not level, the angle of the camera changes when aimed in a different direction.
A changing angle is a nuisance in many circumstances and a major problem when shooting panoramas.
(If the tripod is level the individual panorama shots maintain a constant angle and form a strait line.
If the tripod is not level the individual panorama shots are at different angles and form an arch or valley.
This means each shot must be rotated for stitching and the entire panorama must be severely cropped to remove the overall curve.)
Depending on the tripod's head; the camera may require a level of its own.
If your tripod does not have a built-in level, a fence post level (which can be purchased at a building supply store for about $6) can be attached the the tripods center post.
(The post hole level shown in first comment below is red)
(There is also a hot-shoe level on top of the camera)
A tripod camera level I built with the Laser Cutter at the Dallas Makerspace. It sits between the legs and head to allow the head itself to be levelled rather than just the camera.
From Wikipedia: The Lethbridge Viaduct, commonly known as the High Level Bridge, was constructed between 1907–1909 at Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada at a cost of $1,334,525. This massive steel trestle over the Oldman River was designed by the Canadian Pacific Railway's bridge department in Montreal. The field work was directed by CPR's Assistant Chief Engineer J. E. Schwitzer. The steel work was manufactured by the Canadian Bridge Company of Walkerville, Ontario. A 100 man gang worked on the erection of the steel. Although there were some initial problems with settlement, the bridge has proved to be an enduring engineering work and is still in use today.
This bridge is the largest railway structure in Canada. It was built as part of a major diversion of the Crowsnest Pass route between Lethbridge and Fort Macleod. The river crossing was previously over a wooden trestle measuring 894 m (2,933 ft) long and 20 m (66 ft) high; an impressive structure in its own right.

A juvenile Western Fence Lizard basking in the Arboretum sunshine. He was only about an inch tall (at the top of his head), so I got quite a few stares when I laid down to get the shot.
The crossing booms in Mohács were manually operated. First time I had seen a system like this.

I didn't own a C stand or steel stand of equivalent strength, but I did have a medium strong aluminium stand that reaches 10 feet and rated at 6 Kg capacity. I've used DH's / Reuben Krabbe's mod to create a DIY levelling leg and I wanted to try out Sandbags & Tie Downs.
On grass or comparable surfaces, this combo won hands down. I've used a large parasol holder screw for grass. Two Sand bags were nowhere near as effective at resisting a toppling moment. Obviously keep the tie down close to the main column and fully within the triangular footprint. The weight of the modifier would go on the opposite side.
On a hard surface? Sling all your bags together, I bungy them on a foldable sack cart, suspended from the same bungy above, just off the ground, (in fact one wheel goes just the other side of one cross-brace) and close to the main column.
This stand wasn't up to holding a Kupo Steel Baby boom/Rovelight Jinbei 600v, so it's kept for medium to lightweight duties and heavier duties are shared between an Aluminium MSE 'Light (Wt) Heavy (Duty) triple riser' stand (387490) (modded with leveling leg) and a MSE Digital Baby stand (387032) with its own leveling leg and castors available when indoors.

The Cambrian Coast railway line from Machynlleth to Pwllheli bisects the town of Criccieth. Trains run at approximately two-hourly intervals. It has recently been re-signalled on the ERTMS system, meaning that there are no signalling staff anywhere West of Machynlleth. As part of the re-signalling, all the signage surrounding the level crossings has been updated. Being in Wales, all the signs are bilingual, with the Welsh wording coming first. Here are a few of the signs illustrated with the intention of helping any railway modellers to get it right.
