I do have bahtinov masks for both the guidescope and the main OTA, but i'm still looking at how I can attach them to the scopes.
Easy....they have 3 tabs along the circumference of the mask. Grab a sheet of stiffish cardboard and cut a length of it to form a ring with a circumference just slightly larger than the scope's. Fit the mask to the ring of cardboard by gluing the tabs to the ring. Make sure your ring of cardboard is about 5cm or so wide so you've got something to hold onto the scope Do the same for the guidescope as well. That should solve your little dilemma
