To mount my Megrez on my LX I took a trip to bunnings, got some aluminum tubing and metalic grey paint. Came home, drilled a few holes, did a little spray painting, stuck 2 x $35 skywatcher rings on the bar, and mounted the Megrez. Bingo!
Worked. Not perfect but worked. I'm now going to upgrade but it worked for several years.
Cost me about $90 max including rings.

... pretty poor pic but might help.
I can't see myself spending the money on the losmandy gear, but am (this weekend) having my back neighbour knock up a aluminium bar for mounting on the 12" OTA to have a set of
these screwed to it. I already have the rings (will switch them between Losmandy & LX) ... so won't cost me much, but would be something like $140 total including them.
Lots of options out there.
I'd be interested to see the BINTEL ones, might go look them up...
