The highest i know of is this 30mm

If it doesn't have to be one piece, you could combine a 2-slot picatinny riser with a scope mount?

I may have phrased it wrong.

It's actualy the size of the ring I'm on about. 36mm . The norm is 25mm or 30mm. I need a 36mm rings. They are about, £85 for a pair. That's too much for a project. Will be needing only one.

This might sound a right bodge but have to admit I've done it myself.
If you get some really cheap 30mm rings, the ones that bend easily, you can get a piece of metal tube of the required diameter in your case 36mm and put the lot in a vice to spread the 30mm to 36 diameter.
The screw holes won't line up anymore due to then being splayed, but a quick drill through and a longer bolts did the trick for me, doesn't look pretty but if just for an experiment it might serve a purpose.

Thanks chas. Yes it can be done. This is for a rifle sight. Mini broom. so in need a good hold.

You are a star Andy. A bit of sand paper will do the trick. I didn't think about 35mm.

Will buy the ebay pair. You never know, some one will be looking for one soon.

I did find one other set on ebay but they were about £5 more and they looked a bit thin and flimsy.
Whats the OD of the t67 with the two batteries?
I know its bigger than 30mm.
So someone will probably snap your hand off even if they need to fill the gap with electrical tape.
