Good to see Peter, and to be honest why not just leave the "finder-guider" on instead. I have one, and am amazed at how it guides. In the near future I will be trying mine at an imaging focal length of about 1800mm and assuming it all goes as per plan it will become a fixture.
Mine is on a Losmandy style dovetail saddle that is part of the all original guide-scope ring setup. Heavy cumbersome and as you have found a great source for flexure. Next step for me is the fabrication of a saddle that firmly clamps the finder tube, and attaches the whole shooting box to the imaging scope.
