I hate tripods.
The design is based on a balanced arm lamp I have in my office. This prototype is at a point where I'm going to use it for a while before making adjustments to the model, but it's doing great for a proof of concept.

I know this is way later and doesn't really matter, but I really liked your idea and thought about it for a while.
I ended up coming up with this spring "quick caps" for quickly moving, rearranging, or de-tensioning them for maintenance and it has really improved how the whole boom operates.
