Tube Rings for SarBlue Mak 60

thingiverse

Tube rings for the SarBlue Mak 60 telescope. You always need the bottom ring. In addition, you can print either the top ring or the top ring with synta findershoe attached. The threads for the set screws for the synta findershoe is M4. So M4 screws should fit in. However, it may be better to insert some M4 rivets for stability. To attach a metal synta findershoe to the top ring, use #6-32 x 1/4" or #6-32 x 5/16" screws and #6/32 nuts. You can also use #6-32 screws and nuts to connect the two tube rings. The top tube rings have flattened sides to attach small equipment, such as a raspberry pi zero W computer to control the telescope. I simply glued on Velcro for this purpose. The tube rings are not cylindrical, but are adjusted to the shape of the SarBlue Mak 60. The letter F indicates "front". So this side of the ring needs to go to the front of the telescope.
