Officina Stellare 806F Refractor Mounting a Guide Scope Question

[dazzystar]

Hi All,

I've been loaned an Officina Stellare 806F 80mm refractor which also has a clam shell on a small ADM vixen bar. Unfortunately, there's nowhere either on this clam shell or scope to mount my ZWO mini guide scope. I assume my only alternative is to source a new method of mounting the scope to my EQ3 mount right?

Cheers
Daz

Does it have a finder shoe? You can mount your guidescope on the finder shoe.

Or you can get something like this
