tripod n mount

starfirez · Post by **starfirez** » Mon May 31, 2004 4:49 pm

i need a decent tripod n mount for my 3.1" scope. i'm currently using a camera tripod n mount. the tripod's fine but the mount -_-"... it doesn't have fine tuning. i've tried to take the mount off the tripod but did not succeed. think its super connected together. so if there is any good deals out there please tell me.. thanx
