Two Queations For Binocular Parallelogram Mount Owners

#1

1. Just curios were others place their finder with this mount.

2. I have to keep the adjustment knob very tight or I lose binocular balance. It balances OK, but not when pointed close to zenith. I would like the adjustments to be more fluid like. Maybe that is the way this mount is suppose to work. It really is not a pain to make adjustments as it is. Right click the images. Thanks to you all.

You might be able to MacGyver up a bracket like Gabby's with a couple of small, cheap steel corner braces.
