ABSTRACT:
A hand held device that is connected to a precision instrument's handle or eye piece to bridge the connection between the operator and the instrument. With the device connected, the invention allows the instrument's operator to finely control the instrument's movement. Allowing the adjustment of the instrument's shot by pulling on the device instead of the instrument's handle or eyepiece. Elastic resilient tape is used to smoothly guide the fine movements of an instrument and reduce unwanted vibrations caused by an operator's hands. Using the device by operators of precision instruments is a simple task. The device's small, light weight, and easy to operate design can be made in different sizes to accommodate the various sizes of precision instruments, like cameras, telescopes, and transits. Moreover, the device can be sold individually for a low price.
