Tripod for camera jib - Please help or I die!

[LDS]

Ok I am literally going crazy over stupid thing which is a tripod! :O

I spend days and weeks looking for a good and inexpensive tripod which would be good for my new camera jib (approx 4kg)... The seller of the jib suggested me a tripod available ONLY on American amazon which SUCKS! http://www.amazon.com/Ravelli-AVTP-Professional-Camera-Tripod/dp/B00139W0XM/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

I am based in the UK and can only get tripods from the UK, and tripods in the UK are or too expensive or crap

ANYONE can please recommend a good heavy duty tripod around £100? (available in the UK?)

Please?

check for used "construction" tripods. I dont know the UK term, but they are used in surveying and that kinda thing. They look something like this..

you'll have to do some futzing to make it work with your jib, and you will still need a head..

I will say one thing, best to get one with a speader bar (connects all three legs together) or you will have issues using the jib where 1 leg will adjust its position as you move the jib side to side which can cause leg-creep closer or farther away from the center axis.
