I'm looking to put some mounting rings with a longer dovetail bar on my OTA, to try to improve the stability, any one done this, and recommendations please. It looks like Skywatcher 160mm rings may fit.

So, I haven't tried it yet, but would image stacking work on pictures taken with an slt mounted DSLR or dedicated eyepiece camera. I'm assuming for multiple exposures there will be image rotation with this type of mount, which may prevent stacking.

I Have been down the same route, k1000, me super, p30, K5. I have used my k5 on a 80mm helios spotting scope for terrestrial stuff, the scope has a t-threaded eyepiece, decent results. I've just got back in to astronomy after a long spell without any equipment, but picked up a used celestron 130slt for a great price, and will be looking to do some imaging with it, although I will probably have to get an equatorial mount to replace the slt goto mount at some point when funds allow.
