SELLING Bald Eagle Front With Shade Tree Joystick Mod.

[T.Rhodes]

Selling a Bald Eagle rest that has the Shade Tree Engineering joystick rest installed. It has 3" diameter F Class feet (see photos). The unit is setup to use the joystick between the two support legs so as to not interefere with full range joystick movement. This is a very flexible rest and can be modified to suit the shooter and particular application. Included are parts to modify or return to factory configuration.

$550 buyer pays shipping to conUSA only. Paypal perfered.

Interested if you put it back together with mariners wheel, etc for me.

 

[T.Rhodes]

I would. So you want it without the joystick and back to factory configuration?

 

[jerryg22]

Want the joystick but want mariners wheel for elevation. Prefer if two legs faced forward with forearm post and single leg to the rear.

Having the 2 legs facing reward allows full swing downward. I like the idea a lot!

 

[jerryg22]

Can you do that for me? With mariner wheel in place?

 

[RoyinNC]

You don't need the mariners wheel with this rest. THe base has a course adjustment knob built in.

I can change that too. Originally I had it that way, preferred the other way.

If you're serious about this, I'll re-configure and post photos so we're both on the same page.

As you requested, mariner wheel reinstalled, joystick head rotated 180 degrees.

The F class legs do interfer with full range of motion with joystick. So would likely need to use the factory feet. Depending on the height you use it - there may still be interference.

The bubble levels were removed as there is now no place to secure them now.

 

[jerryg22]

Aha. I see what you mean. Base is Not a good fit for me.

What do you do to rotate the top 180 degrees? I thought there was a Keyway/ spline that would prevent this?

The keyway you may be thinking of is on the coarse vertical adjustment. The fine adjustment with the mariner wheel has a "keyway" slot that the stop handle tracks into for raising/lowering. When I switched 180 degrees I used a 9/16" hex screw to lock that in place. And that worked fine. I'll put that back if I change back to my configuration.

Hope that helps.

That was really smart. I had the same setup and I was struggling with getting full range of motion.
