Does anyone know if there is anyone making clone Losmandy "D" universal dovetail plates at reseasonable prices? :confused2:

ADM and Farpoint make universal Losmandy D style dovetail plates, and several manufacturers (William Optics, Televue, Celestron come to mind) make their own to fit their equipment.

I'm not aware of domestic distributors for ADM or Farpoint, but they may be out there. Overseas shipping on these can be fairly high, due to their mass.

I got a 15" universal plate from ADM which was US$22 shipping. Concidering OPT want US$55 to send a 1.25" filter, US$22 is pretty good :)

Robin just a point OPT can ship USPS if you ask and the freight will be half that
