You need to be able to rotate the camera precisely and I used an old focuser draw tube with a 2 inch adapter on the front of the camera. Have to be a bit careful with laser safety as well..don't look anywhere near the beam

Thanks Ray I will go look at the link. I have seen similar to what I think you are talking about.. your idea for holding the camera is excellent..the jig I saw required a huge thing to hold the whole camera and I was put off as finding something like that would be difficult but your approach seems much more practical.....thanks again
