You thoughts on this thanks. I see how soon i can come up with the money with my job, and saving money and all... -Bruce Glad
Good luck with your club next year. I had a club going at East High back in '75, great fun.

Hey Chuck, what would be the best for your homemade mount? I have a pair of 8x50 binoculars do you think they would be good enough to want to use a mount?
You bet! I use the parallelogram for everything from my 8x40's up to my 15x70's. Had some 10x50's on there just the other night.
Any mount will give a steadier image for any binocular, than hand-holding.
If the binocular has a 1/4-20 tripod attachment on the front of the hinge, you're all set. If not, you may want to go to Gallenson's and see if they have a replacement for your binocular. Coupla bucks, according to Dave Dunn.
