Splat autopsy

My Migo Splat has a broken leg. It was fine and then suddenly things went wonky and useless. 

This flexible tripod is invaluable, as I explained back in February, so a replacement has been purchased. £18 for something I use a lot isn't a bad buy, or at least I've spent more money for less useful stuff in the past. And so have you, so stop sniggering. 

I couldn't throw the Splat away without doing a bit of digging though. What's inside? 

Cutting carefully down each leg allowed me to peel the rubber away and reveal a flexible steel (I think) set of legs. One of these had fractured, hence the problem. At least I know now.
