Does anyone know of a source for something like this? Bolt it on as the "rear cell" and all SCT accessories become available. Thanks, -- William

The closest I know of is a Borg/Hutech part:

"SCT to M57/60 Adapter" - it's a thread-on part, and may need additional threaded Borg adapters.

HTH,

Assuming you have a 2" focusser, JMI (jimsmobiledotcom) have an adapter called ADPT2THREAD that should do the trick, IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH BACKFOCUS for whatever it is you are attaching.

>>>
SCT Threaded Output Adapter—2"

Standard SCT threaded output for inserting into a 2" drawtube. This adapter duplicates the standard threads found on a small SCT allowing standard SCT accessories to be attached to the output of any 2" focuser. (This adapter is a standard accessory with an NGF-C and NGF-CM focusers). See SCT Accessories Diagram, Adapter Comparison Chart and Refractor Diagram.
ADPT2THREAD $19.95 ($6)
