LEVELING MECHANISM FOR TRIPOD BASEAbstract of the DisclosureA leveling mechanism is provided for a campstove whichincludes a base and a plurality of legs which are pivotallyattached to the base. The leveling mechanism is a ring-shapedband which is inserted between the legs and the base. A cammingramp extends over a portion of the circumference of the band andprogressively increases the thickness of the band. The band isrotatable to position the camming ramp between one of thepivoting legs and the base for pivoting the leg away from thebase,
