Guide Scope suggestion

I have seen glimpses of some little designs using threaded rods that will move the guide scope in two planes. That seems like a good idea. Does anyone have one of these and have any opinions about this as a design. Better still, can anyone drop some photos of such an arrangement?

Hi Peter. I've just started using an Orion Guidestar finder on an ED 80 guidescope with a guiding camera attached. Scope stays still, camera moves. Costs about $340 through Sirius Optics, or Bintel. Solves the problem nicely.
