Hi Chris,
I made up an alloy bar and screwed the dovetail bar to that. I also added a smaller rail to the top of the rings to make it more rigid. I got a small 4 piece metric tap kit from Bunings to thread the holes (about $20). My scope is a 10" so I have made this heavy duty, the other long bolts are for mounting the scope to an older eq pier mount.
