Hi Roland,
Several years ago I made a homemade version of the Sky Window and I did like it. I used a first surface mirror from Surplus Shed, and used it with different binoculars, (10x50, 15x70, 20x60) of 3 different brands. I found that the 10x50's were fine, but when I went to the 15x70's and 20x60's I could see a slight reflection in the mirrors back surface and stars were no longer pinpoints. So I liked them at 10x. One thing I really enjoyed was the comfort factor as I was no longer straining my neck to look up.
