Agena 13" Anodized Dovetail Bar for EQ5 and Other Mounts

Vixen Dovetail Plate Mounting Block # 3810
It works, but the silver
It works, but the silver safety screw doesn't engage the Vixen dovetail correctly. It doesn't sit all the way in the notch where it should.

GSO Telescope Tube Mounting Rings (Set of 2) - 176mm (6.93")
GSO 176mm Rings
Quality item - they fit perfectly on a old C6 OTA I had. You will need metric 6mm mounting screws (vs. 1/4 x 20 U.S.) - to attach a mounting rail. I was lucky as I just happen to have 2 from a old rail I had. Very reasonably priced. And it's har...

Kokusai Kohki Guide Handle for Vixen Porta / Porta II Mount
Al-az tripod control arm
What a wonderful and useful tool to increase the benefits of using an Alt-Az mount. I was surprised at how robust it was and the foam handle end makes it comfortable to control the scope without having to torque on the scope.

GSO Telescope Tube Mounting Rings (Set of 2) - 90mm (3.54")
