 All that is fine except they state "no tripods". They are not
 specific about which type, just "NO".

Howzbout a quadrapod?  There are FOUR legs that screw into the front of
one of my Leica "macro" attachments
Howzbout a simple sturdy cardboard box?  Cut out enough of the sides for
light, and a hole for the camera to peer through.
It is odd that they say "no tripods", NOT "no stands".
