Rings for a 180mm Mak

Not happy with the direct mount bar to OTA assembly on the Sykwatcher 180 Mak - especially since I want to add an ED80 as a guide scope (yeah, overkill ). I just don't trust those bolts with all that weight on it slewing around - I have images of it at meridian bending the OTA or even worse, shearing...

Anyway, who makes a set of rings to suit this OTA, moreso one I can add a top rail to to mount the ED80? My mount is an HEQ5 Pro.

Appreciate the help.
