Actually you might find the tripod is better than you think, especially for binos. Take the head off it (that is the heavy bit with the slow motion controls and counterweight) leaving just the legs and the base plate (or equivalent) then work out a way of mounting the binos onto the base plate, usually done with a vertical tube / threadder rod etc, and a crossbar to mount the binos onto (will look a little like a stick figure with no head and three legs, and this sounds strange writng it I can't imagine what others think reading it). Then use the counterweight to offset the binos. All in all you are probably getting the most out of whats left. And you can still burn the head / tube to get clear weather...
