[NLRS] tripod anyone

Has anybody taken more than a casual glance at what I think are tripods 
for laser levels at Menards?  The picture on the box shows it has points 
that stick into the ground.  The only thing it might not have is the 
az/el adjustments, which might make aiming difficult.  They're only 
about $20, so it might be worth a look.  Maybe one could design an az/el 
system if they don't have one...
