Losmandy saddle

[Leo.G]

I'm after a short Losmpandy saddle clamp (I think that's what it's called) to fit to an old Megrez 80mm (original non ED, non flourite non doublet or triplet, first model) to mount it onto the Losmandy dovetail on an RC8 GSO as a finder/guidescope.

Sorry, I know what I want, I don't know what it's called. Saddle may refer to the mounting head for the top of an actual mount, I don't know. It's just a small clamp to slide over a Losmandy dovetail I need to attach a small scope to.


Condition/appearance not overly important as long as it clamps to the Losmandy dovetail plate securely and will take a 1/4x20 mounting bolt standard on that model Megrez (6.5mm hole in middle which I can drill if required). I'm thinking of upgrading the shoe to a 3/8 bolt for better grip. I rarely use the original travel mount due to irreparable wear in the head.
I just measured and the clamp I require would need to be 60-80mm long.



Thanks!

Still required it seems perhaps.
I'd prefer a clamp with twin locking knobs and as I've been told some brands may not grip the Losmandy type plate as fitted to the GSO 8RC I can rectify that problem easily if that's the case so it's no issue.
