Hi Dave,
I persume your Red Dot finder has a Dovetail mount, if so the easiest way to mount it is to purchase a Dovetail base and attach it to your telescope in a suitable position for easy use.
I have mounted a Red Dot finder to an Orion 200mm Dobsonian
telescope ,next the existing 9 x 50 finderscope and it works a treat.
I have found that extra weight is not required to counter balance the Red Dot finder.
You can purchase a dovetail base online from Bintel for $10.00 plus postage that would do the job.
PS. I have no a interest in Bintel apart from being a satisfied customer.
