Hi,
Most of the rigel user use the double sided tape provided and stick the rigel base on the scope OTA.

Have a nice day.

I'm not sure if the double-sided tape will not mar the paint finish...

I have a Telrad and Rigel and would like to attach one to my WO 70..

You could check out the HomeFix DIY shop for a 3M double sided tape which is also clear. Use it at work and its strong, thick and cushy, plus easy to roll off when used. Doesn't mar surfaces or leaves residue. When I go back to work tomorrow I check for the name.
