Found- thanks to all

I’m looking for several quick release plates that fit a Velbon Videomate 601 tripod. Any suggestions? Looked on E Bay but couldn’t locate one.
Any help will be appreciated.

I actually ordered and received this one. It’s too large so I returned it. Thanks so much for the suggestion.
The 601 model is obviously different than the 600 series

That's why I changed all my tripods heads to one's that would accept 'arca swiss' plates . . . It simplifies everything so much . . . And every camera/scope/etc has arca Swiss plates . . .

Thank you. This seems like a very sensible solution for tripods. In my case however I was given the tripod by a friend so it would be easier to just go out and purchase a new one.

If you could find one... Perhaps that's why he gave the tripod to you.

You're right. I have a feeling he unsuccessfully tried to fine the piece and then decided to give the tripod to me. Think I need to demote him from a "friend: to an "acquaintance" :>))

Thank you! I just ordered it. Don’t know how I missed this listing when I originally searched ebay. Also can’t believe you took the time to find it for me. You’re a prime example as to why this site is terrific.
Thanks again Ed.
