Connect finder dovetail to camera tripod?

Hi everyone

I'm off camping next week and am hoping to do some viewing but don't want to lug the 10" dob with me. I spied the 50mm finder on the dob (standard skywatcher one) and wonder if it's possible to mount it to a camera tripod e.g. via the tripod screw? There's no obvious thread on the finder dovetail unfortunately...

Would appreciate any advice here. I figure that such a rig will be better than naked eye (I don't have a pair of binos unfortunately).

Regards

Ben
