20x80 Binoculars Platform

Hi All,
Well Platform may not be quite the word,(but it,s the best one I could think of).

Anyone who has the 20x80 Binoculars,with the looong Barrels HAS to be a little concerned about the stresses,caused by these Barrels just hanging there.
Not to mention the Vibration they cause.

I think the pics,tell the Story.
The Bolts used under the ends of the Barrels are Nylon,the framework is Aluminium.

Regards.
John
