Thanks guys. The 8" Dob mount still needs a coat or two of Estapol and installing the ribbed rubber strips on the internal panel faces that secure the tube into the box. One of our members has requested info on my method of securing the tube in the box. The image shows the temporary placement of the strips, although you only see 3 of them here.

It was suggested that I hinge the top panel, which I will do, and have a clip or latch on the other edge.
