Hello Curt,
Could be a nice thing to have your students build their own
panoheads. At PanotollsNG wiki you can find some examples of
self-made heads, some of them very sophisticated (not what you are
asking of course). There is also a VERY cheap and simple head like
this one: http://tinyurl.com/6xa4yj (PanotoolsNG message with the
addresses) and even cheaper and easier: the Philopod at
