Wood Tripod

Hello, I have a quick question.

I have a wood tripod with the hinges and plastic tray in the middle of the legs. I need to fold the legs to get it in my back seat. To do this, I have to take the tray completely off. Not a big deal but those screws are so small.

My question is:

Is there anyway to make this tripod fold like a camera tripod? Can I make something by just going to the hardware store and buying the parts? Like a quick disconnect hub?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

John



P.S. No backseat jokes please. I can see a million of them.
