Well thanks to the help of TokyoSeven and his engineering background, we cobbled up something in the garage.
As you can see, it's a very simple device. The top is a replacement mount for an Optex tripod, price of $15. I removed the safety 'pin' although on second thought, I probably should have left it on. Oh well.
I then epoxy'd the L-bracket to the tripod mount and let it sit for 30 hours outside (trust me fellas, if you haven't experienced the 'joy' of the epoxy-smell, it REALLY is not a pleasant thing to experience)
The L-Bracket is then mounted quite securely to a spare scope mount.
And then mounted onto the side of the PSG-50
The scope mount is then mounted to my RAS
And then with the camera mounted and ready to go
Oooh... I could use the video camera as my scope
I'll just pick up a filter (39mm) to protect the lense
And also find some sort of protection for the screen itself. The downside is that the bloody camera turns off/stops recording as soon as the little window closes... damnit.
Y HELLO THAR
