Tripod boom for old small Manfrotto tripod?

I have a small old aluminum Bogen/Manfrotto 3001 tripod I used to use as a travel tripod, and I was thinking of repurposing it for tabletop macro work. It's the precursor to the current $190 model MT055XPRO3.

My tripod does not have a collar that lets the center column tilt 90 degrees, but I see there are some inexpensive booms for tripods, with good-to-bad reviews, like this one

Are these booms any good? Any specific model recommended to use with my tripod? Thanks.
