Overview
Please note that the Ronford Baker (RF80070) Billet Bazooka Base does not include risers. However, it features a patented Mitchell fitting that combines massive strength, a stable build platform, fast construction, and ultra-versatility in its modular design. This design has no cost constraints and is superior to the EuroBoss, which has a weaker 100 mm diameter mating face and can flex when a large fluid head or gears are added to a boss-type bazooka column of more than 600 mm.
The Bazooka Base also offers a quick and secure connection method with a ‘true’ Mitchell top fitting, a tri-point adaptor, and a lock-lever that can be easily tightened without the need for tools. Additionally, the system is modular, with interchangeable legs and ends, and can be easily configured using scaffold tubes and clamps. The riser elements, made of CNC machined billet alloys and high-tensile stainless steel, provide high payload capacity and can be adjusted without tools. The leveller allows for stable mounting at angles up to 15 degrees, while the ‘T’ section can convert the base into a dolly for added versatility.

About the Ronford Baker Billet Bazooka Base
PLEASE NOTE: Ronford Baker (RF80070) Billet Bazooka Base ONLY (Risers not included)
Patented Mitchell fitting Bazooka Base which incorporates massive strength, a stable build platform, fast construction and ultra-versatility into its modular design. Massive strength, stable build platform, fast construction, ultra-versatile, modular design, no cost constraint design.
The EuroBoss, with it‘s 100 mm diameter mating face is just not strong enough, put together a boss-type bazooka column of more than 600 mm, add a large fluid head or gears and see how much flex you‘ve put up with.
The 7“ Mitchell fitting is very strong, but too time consuming to assemble, how often has that nut been cursed by the grip? Who then needs to find a Tommy bar or seat riser to ‘hammer’ it tight. The patented connection starts with a ‘true’ Mitchell top fitting, adds a quickly removable tri-point adaptor, and with it‘s opposite becomes a fast, familiar, very secure fitting. Put the two elements together, spin down the knurled nut – don‘t even go hand tight, and pull the lock-lever. that‘s it. The lock-lever then folds up out of the way. All of the parts in the new bazooka system, from base to leveler, use this connection method.
The Base
Ronford Baker have produced an ultra-strong Mitchell base, deep section legs
Modular Design – All the legs and ends are interchangeable
Use up to three, 200 mm long sections on each leg or just use the ends. There‘s even a 100 mm section and hinge joint, the combinations are endless
Any of the levelling jacks can easily be replaced by scaffold tubes – securely held by the built-in clamps. Uses no tools to change its configuration.
The Riser Elements
A set of 5 elements of 100, 150, 200, 400 and 800 mm in length give the widest range of size combinations for the minimum number of pieces.
Three-leg design using a custom extrusion, CNC machined billet alloy components and high-tensile stainless steel provide massive strength, high torsional rigidity and no rust. The no-welding construction allows for easy repair.
Adjustable Risers
Strong, rigid, as light as possible – a common design theme.
New wind-up risers are made in the same way as the rest of the system. CNC machined billet alloys, high tensile stainless steel, special metal treatments.
High payload capacity
No tools required to either fit or adjust.Optimised gearbox ratio allows easy height adjust under full load – without affecting the level.
The Leveller
A design that provides a firm, stable Mitchell fitting at angles up to 15 degrees all ways. Uses straight levels that are only affected by one adjuster. Gives side access to the Mitchell top fitting, with minimum overall height.
Dolly Systems
By incorporating the ‘T’ Section with your Bazooka System you can convert the base into a dolly.
Riser Elements 100 (4in), 150 (6in), 200 (8in), 400 (16in), 800 (32in)
