I've never realy got on with the focusing on my pard.....hand gets in front of the lens or IR and lose what i'm looking at.

I bought a couple of plastic mitre gears.  stuck one where the focus clamp goes. I had to turn it down loads to get it to fit and go under the IR. This one i've had to glue to the brass ring.

The other one i used the original pard weaver mount to hold it.   I use a QR pulsar mount to fix the 008 to the rifle.

Drilled a hole through the original mount, turned the plastic gear to mesh with the other gear, made an aluminium wheel to operate it all.

It still needs a bit of fine tuning and the operating wheel might be a bit over the top ......could be smaller.

It's 3/4 of a turn of the wheel to get full travel of the lens.
