I have been looking around for a 2nd telrad base to fit the c5. Anyone got any spare one or any idea to improvise a base?

anyway, i have got a solution. i have tried weixing's idea of using cable ties to secure my telrad base. it works well, so i will just cut off the cable ties if i need to transfer the telrad to another scope. less messy than double-sided tape, more secure than velcro, and cheap too!

Hi,
Use those cable tie with quick release... it is reusable.
Have a nice day.

I just got myself a spare telrad base! Anyone looking for one should quickly check with Joo Beng from Astro-bargain.
