Set plates on each side of the mount to lock the nut/s in place.

Probotix

Last week I ordered the Probotix 3 axis kit. It came in the mail today. I'm excited to get home and start assembling it. Rifling through the forums I have seen nothing but good about this kit.
I will post more later tonight.
