Adapter for Celestron finder to SSAG

thingiverse

I wanted to try using our guiding through a finder, so I created this adapter to connect the Orion Star Shoot Auto Guider (SSAG) camera to a Celestron 9x50 finder. The Celestron 9x50 guidescope has a relatively short backfocus compared to the end of the tube. As a result, the sensor needs to be positioned very close to the tube. This adapter features T-thread for the camera and can therefore work with other similar cameras (such as ZWO). It was somewhat of a trial-and-error process to determine the correct scope threads, but it now fits securely in place.
