[COLOR="Purple"]You can make a lot of things with aluminum angle. Here's one of the attachment brackets. I'll eventually round the edges and make the angle look a little better. These are proof of performance pieces at this point. Nuts and bolts are stainless.

I'm thinking of ebonizing the wood of the upper ring, and maybe on the rest of the scope too. Anyone ever ebonize the wood on their scope instead of more traditional stain?
