[QUOTE="Les1580, post: 518520, member: 30755"] Hi All [url=http://www.quicksarchery.co.uk/superbasket/product/1460/BV56+Beiter+Bubble+for+Scope]BV56 Beiter Bubble for Scope. - Quicks Archery[/url]. Having bought the Red Bubble in a Black Housing, which required the Base sanding flat - a small Locating Lug is moulded on the bottom to lock it into the Compound Scope. I put a piece of Wet 240 Grit Wet & Dry on my Kitchen Work Top and rotated the Mount while sanding until the Bubble was central in all directions. A strip of bl;ack plastic is then superglued to the bottom - Bubble not fitted at this stage. Superglue this Assembly to the rear of the Scope Weaver Rail and fit the Bubble - About an Hours Work in total. This is a cheap & easy £8 DIY solution to the Canting Problem.

During a long search through numerous Forums, I came across this - [url=http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_1&products_id=107738]7dayshop.com - Online Store[/url] So I ordered 1. First job was to find a suitable size Nut to araldite into the Hotshoe Mount. A nice M6 Stainless NyLoc was lying around, so, drill 3mm, 6mm, 10mm. The Hotshoe is hollow so a sharp knife can be used to fine tune the fit. Fill the threads with grease and araldite away. [URL="http://s1182.photobucket.com/albums/x450/Les1580/?action=view¤t=22062011074.jpg"][IMG]http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x450/Les1580/th_22062011074.jpg?t=1308718753[/IMG][/URL][URL="http://s1182.photobucket.com/albums/x450/Les1580/?action=view¤t=10062011068.jpg"][/URL] Put a long 6mm Bolt into the Nut to use as a Guide for Vertical / Horizontal Alignment. Next, drill the Weaver Rail as appropriate to your SetUp. Mine is under the Scope Power Adjustment. [URL="http://s1182.photobucket.com/albums/x450/Les1580/?action=view¤t=10062011065.jpg"][IMG]http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x450/Les1580/th_10062011065.jpg?t=1308718753[/IMG][/URL] Drill 3mm, 4mm, then 5mm & Tap M6. Take Care as the Cocking Rope is right under where you are Drilling / Tapping, so beware of Swarf. Fit an M6 Stainless Bolt into the Digital Level and EyeBall the length required. Cut the Bolt & file smooth. Araldite into the Weaver Rail so the Level is at about 10 O'Clock. File the base of the nut until the Level is True.

Enjoy Cheers Les [/QUOTE]
