Rob I think the wedge idea comes to the mind of many people wanting an easy solution to RA tracking with a standard dob base.
Once you start adding rotating tube rings and addressing the shortcomming of a standard dob base designed to handle weight bearing in one direction only, you may as well start from scratch and make a purpose built tracking mount from the ground up.
