I picked this telescope up to use as a guide scope. When I got it, I saw that iOptron had a small Vixen-style dovetail bar screwed directly into the scope. My imaging refractor is big and heavy and the top rail I have installed is a combination handle/Synta mount. I put this together which is a mashup of what iOptron ships and the Synta i needed. The bottom of the Vixen half slides right along the top of my handle so it's got another point of contact. I replaced the Phillips head screw/nuts they used with M4*20 hex drive bolts and nuts. Maybe someone else will be able to use it...
