Better platform

Hello everybody, I was setting up to observed the occultation of the moon and saturn last night using my Orion Giant View 20x80 binoc's on a Velbon tripod. Unfortunately after many attempts to establish a stable mount I missed out on seeing the acutual occultation. Because these bino'c are heavy (5-6 Kilos) and wishing still to use them, can anybody suggest a better way of fixing them to a more stable platform? Cheers
