Sure, you could have two bipods, one with spikes...the other without. But that's just more shit to try squeeze into an alreay full hunting pack, plus more $$$. But late last night an idea popped into my head:

So back to the lathe



Test fitting.



See what I've done yet?



How about now?


So to my knowledge, this is a first. I made the spikes, so that the old rubber feet would fit snugly over the top. The diameter is enough to hold them there on the own, nice tight fit. But a little electrical tape will be used just for peace of mind, to stop me from losing them if needed.

So there it is, you can have your cake and eat it too...with a little kiwi ingenuity
