The IIX clamps onto one leg and needs to be braced to prevent it from
turning. It puts all the forces on one leg and is kind of light to medium-
duty. I haven't seen the F12 version but suspect that it's well done in light
of the normally excellent F12 mechanical designs.
You can fabricate one yourself pretty easily. You just need some U-bolts,
four pieces of angle iron and a couple of flat plates. I've got 2 (and
possibly 3) reprints of sidemount articles. Two bucks will get you all of them
(Box 572, Woodinville, WA, 98072).
