dob base for 10" or maybe 12" newtonian OTA

I'm trying to rig up a recently acquired 10" for dual visual and imaging use. See here for IIS thread. I have a 10" OTA with rings and a dovetail on it for mounting on an EQ mount, but want a dob base for it as well.

I'm wondering if the bracket or whatever I rig up for the OTA is a bit of a DIY job, I might need a bit more room than you'd get from a typical 10" base, so thinking a 12" may also be an option.

Unless you have something in mind that could help?
