If anyone is looking for solutions to their modding problems, try Thingiverse (www.Thingiverse.com). They have a ton of 3D printed mods available for ATMers who wish to upgrade their telescopes, but don't want to spend a ton of cash on vendor supplied options. You can then take those STL files and go to Treatstock (www.treatstock.com) to have your mods printed for a fair price, if you don't have a printer of your own. I know, because I have made many upgrades for the telescopes using these 3D printed mods from some reputable vendors who own their own 3D printers. I am hawing over which 3D printer I want to purchase to save me some money in printing costs.

Just search for Astronomy in the search bar and you will get about 100 pages of mods!
