> 3 dayAll metal. Replace the existing rail for this dovetail shoe that allowed me for flexibility for my spot scope.

> 3 dayVery well made and matches optical tube curve well for Celestron C5 6SE 8SE to attach upgraded finder scopes and pointers. Other similar bases are flat and do not sit well on curved optical tubes. This base is very good.

> 3 dayThis bracket fits perfectly on a Celestron CPC 1100 Edge HD, perfect! I needed a vixen style bracket for my ZWO guide scope and at this time I dont think could have made a better choice.

> 3 dayWill fit the Explore Scientific ED80 if you replace the stock screws with 6mm m5 screws. Itll overhang on both sides but a small strip of electric tape to keep it from scratching is all you need.

Precision machined finder shoe base in matte black, made of high strength aluminum with anodizing aluminium process, durable for long time use. The aluminum material makes the product lighter and easier to carry. |
The base forms two linear constraints on each tube radius of 130-400 mm in diameter, which gives maximum stability. The base also carries small guidance/CCD guider without any problem. |
Two large knurled thumbscrews makes it easy to install: Bases feature two large thumbscrew locks to secure your finder scope or reflex sight in place, even while wearing gloves. Just put it on the optical tube and tighten the screws. |
There are two elongated holes on this base and a single countersunk hole for screws up to M5 in the middle. Two screws are on the side of base. The distance between the center points of the screw holes is 24 to 41 mm. |
