How much force does it need to handle? is it something in the realm of being 3D printable?

Just a small amount of effort to manually move the Scope
Probably could be ....I know nothing about 3D Printing.

Hi Col,

If you or a friend are handy it could be made by hand from some steel or aluminium flat section using not much more than a drill or drill press, vice to help with bending etc.

Col, roughly where are you? I might be able to knock something up if you can give me measurements.

Hi Col,

Sorry to take so long getting back to you.

I've attached what I have so far. The holes may need to be reamed out slightly
and The handle is still oversized by about 10mm width.

Life keeps getting in the way :P:mad2:

Hopefully one or two more sessions and it will look much prettier.

I haven't tried to offset the handle as
a) I don't want to bend it to close and too much.
b) it will be a bugger to bend (1/8"steel)

Cheers,

Neville,
