Losmandy -style plate
I have an idea how to make a cheap saddle for Losmandy bar... see the sketch attached.
I have one extra bar.. so it is easy to cut it to a smaller size (to reduce weight). The other bar (on the scope) is held in place by means of two bolts and appropriate nuts and washers (I am trying to find something suitable, otherwise I will have to have them milled).
It will be way cheaper than what's available.. and even good looking...
Anyone knows of something like that? Angles are 60°.
