Hey there,

I have a 12" collapsible dob, and did the following to improve the usability.
1) put removable cable ties around the finder to prevent it from falling onto the mirror
2) got a right angle finder scope to save my back
3) got a telrad to find things really quickly in the sky
4) made a base with wheels so I use the scope more often
5) made a shroud, improve stray light but mainly to protect the mirror from say an eyepiece being dropped onto it

Cheers
