The right-angle join will likely be secured with wood glue, so that takes a day to set. I had to add gluing a piece of sandpaper to the arm the camera is attached to so that there is increased friction at the attachment to the vertical upright piece. Otherwise, it would slide downwards. The fact that I'm loading it with a Nikon D2Xs with a Sigma 12-24mm lens has something to do with that. If you are reasonably handy with wood-working, the basics won’t take very long.
