I dont think he was looking for advice...I think he was just showing something to us...
Sorry, I didn't mean to come off a-hole-ish but he did say that he took it to the field today but didn't see anything to pull the trigger on.
Great job on the fabrication of the camera mount but I would be very very leary of attaching that much weight that high up and to the side of the scope right where the tube comes together.
