I am in the process of obtaining a Celestron NexStar 6SE. A friend has an 8SE so I am familiar with them. One thing I do not like is the handbox setup on the one arm mount. I remember about 2 years seeing an ad on the computer for a mounting device that can be installed that hooks onto the handbox clips on the arm and turns the handbox 90 degrees to face the rear of the scope and seems to be much more stable and secure. Does anyone out there in Astromart land know about this and who makes them and where I can make contact to get one. Thanks in advance for your help......Tom

Hi Tom,
I purchased one of these for my Nexstar 8SE. They are made and sold by JMI in Colorado. They sell several accessories for these scopes.
