Have been looking to improve my Half Hitch FTX as I'm not convinced the standard saddle attachment to the mount is as good as it could be.
Also I prefer having the rings connect to the dovetail with 2 bolts rather than just the one.
I came up with the idea of a plate that bolts to the mount then a Losmandy style saddle can bolt to that. This is way stronger than standard. Just need to attach the altitude stops now to finish.
All machining was done by Peter from PS CustomMade and he's done a fantastic job.
