Yeah, you know, the blue tripod foldup? Here's a little tip on keeping it free of dirt/mud, and keeping just a wee bit more weight from being added:
1 take the end cap off
2 wad up a paper napkin
3 stuff into bottom of chairleg about an inch
4 fill remainder with elmer's glue/hotglue
5 replace cap
Of course the caps will eventually grind down, but this should be a cheap and easy way to keep it plugged up.
Wow, that's a great idea!

I use gorilla glue. That stuff is strong.

Agreed. the key is making sure you have a good, thick layer of glue between the wad and the cap.

So long as it dosen't expand and break the tube!
My easy/ghetto fix is tape around the end caps. Never had a problem after I've done it.

And when the caps wear out you can always buy new ones at your local Home Depot or Lowes for like a couple bucks!!!
