If someone isn't able to answer a question, then I don't want to hear from them. In other words, it will not fit unless only one screw is used. It does not match up with the Celestron 8SE's two screw holds. Screw holds between the screw heads do not have enough space.
As to the mounting, I have it mounted on a 254x1200 monitor. Mount the rack with the provided screws after drilling two holes.
There is no match between them.

These bases slide in and fit tightly with items like their EZ Finder II red dot finder scopes or one of their right angle correct image (RACI) scopes. curved support plate below is the only thing to be added. On my Orion XT10G dobsonian, the included dovetail base has a steel support plate under the optical tube, however if you choose to order this dovetail base, it only comes with two bolts and two nuts. The only thing this mount can withstand is a heavy RACI scope attached to it (no washers). This means mounting this to a thin wall optical tube and then mounting an optical tube to a heavy RACI scope attached to it can potentially bend the optical tube. For me, this is the reason it gets In addition to that, it works very.
An erecting rod has fallen over, shearing the stop screw on its bracket, and so the bracket needed to be replaced. All of these are interchangeable and standard. My only regret is that I couldn't get a replacement. Although I had the tool, the screw had been sheared.
Included in the package is an adapter that screws into the telescope. Using this adapter will enable you to transform the Celestron 127EQ finderscope into something practical. Hardware is included with this adapter to attach it to the telescope. Mount or scope do not need to be drilled or modified in any way. When the Orion adapter is attached, any of the finderscopes from Orion can be used.
There is more than one way to mount this base, such as Orion/Synta style brackets. My finders are easily moved between telescopes with the help of these devices. Amount of distance between mounting holes on base of 7214 is 20 millimeters As an alternative, you can also use the prefix "pre" instead of "pre" On my Orion 90mm and on my 102mm f / 7 ED refractor, I drilled about the same number of holes. A glossy black hammertone finish was applied to the base I received.
It was very simple to add the base to the scope, just drill a hole in the tube, screw the base in with one screw and tighten the screw to align the base with the tube axis. Then attach the second screw into the second hole drilled through the base. It is a mount for the green laser pointer, which I used with it. It was easy to remove the pointer from the holder and reattach it because the fit was tight and repeatable.
By drilling just a few holes, it can be installed in minutes. As the mirror was mounted on my Dob, I tilted my Dob toward the ground and drilled the holes. A number of hardware components are.
It's like a whole new scope after I took it out of my Celestron Nexstar 6se, which had a crappy sight. There will be no more worry about the battery on that silly little led, and it will be easier to use now. The spotting scope is so clear and powerful that it can even be used The product is amazing.
Don't forget to be careful The program was able to accomplish what I needed. Don't forget to be careful The brackets of the Orion finder scope tend to loosen up after it has cooled Make sure the finder scope is secure with a leash in case it becomes.
