Make sure the attachment leg to mount is very firm, and build a decent spreader/accessory tray.
Some of the early Zeiss tripods had a second spreader or accessory tray at the bottom of the legs. I have considered making one of these (second trays) partly to stiffen what is already a very stiff tripod, but also to store all those little things that one needs at the scope at night, laptop, battery, eyepieces, you name it.
