      5.0 Beautifully made piece of equipment!!

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      This is a gorgeous, stiff extruded aluminum bracket designed to mount a finder scope onto the Explore Scientific Telescope proprietary mount. It has a nice black anodized matte finish.

      Unfortunately Explore Scientific doesn’t offer a Red Dot, Unity 1x finder. I bought this bracket in order to modify it and attach my "Agena Multi-Reticle Reflex Finder" to my “80mm Refractor”. I cut off the rings, filed down the remainder - leaving a flat surface so the Agena upper base could grab onto it.

      It works perfectly!!

      5.0 Explore righrt angle finder bracket with generic right angle finder.

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      The bracket works well with my explore scientific 80 mm triplet. A straight through bracket & finder are too close to the tube to use. The right angle finder is easy to use. It works very well with a solar filter. The plastic screws for the bracket are of marginal length to work with my finder; it takes a bit of effort to center the finder with the main telescope; but it does work.

      Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes
