Transit of Venus
This set up was designed for observation of the transit of Venus on the 6 June 2012. You do NOT look through the binoculars, just project the two images of the sun on an A4 size card held about 300mm behind the eyepiece.The clamp holding the binoculars is a RAM-B-231Z-2U, which includes the pipe clamp screw up strap (2 other U bolt alternatives are in the packet). The ball at the top of the tripod, is a RAM-B-337U, and the RAM-B-201-A joins the two. The tripod is the RAM-TRIPOD1.
If you have your own tripod, use the RAM-B-231Z to fit on one leg. Then the RAM-B-231Z-2U clamps the binoculars, and the RAM-B-201 or RAM-B-201-A joins the 2.
