This beautifully machined finder scope bracket is designed for easy mounting in a variety of configurations.
Custom designed nylon-tipped clamping screws with locking-nuts make collimation a breeze while protecting your finder scope and locking it in position, rock solid!
The modular design allows for the ultimate in configurability. Different mounting plate options allow the finder scope bracket to be moved quite easily, and without any tools, allowing you the full use of your finder scope on all of your telescopes!
The clever thumb lever on the mounting base provides a sure-fire and secure way to fasten the bracket, so attaching and removing the bracket is a snap. On our tests, we found that collimation was quite acceptable after removing and reattaching the finder scope bracket several times.

Although I do not have a deep pocket, what attracts me the most in your web site and products is the
fact that you do not seem to accept any compromise when quality is at stake.
This is exactly what I am looking for. Indeed, I do not want to make any compromise too on the
quality of the equipment that I buy and I always keep in mind that I will probably have it on my
telescope for many many years, if not for the rest of my life.

RainyDayMagazine.com's First Look at our FTM-M8 - "If you are looking for a few
final Winter projects for your telescope, consider these upgrades. Dollar for dollar, these
focus- related upgrades will probably have more impact on your viewing experience than
anything else you can do for your scope."

Feather Touch® Digital Focusing System components
are made available as a kit, or sold separately to allow you to customize the system to your
unique needs. By acquiring only those components required to optimize your system for your
specific use, (Visual and/or CCD Imaging) your upgrade costs can be spread out over time. As you
expand your applications you can easily upgrade your system by purchasing additional components.
Attaching the motor housing to your Feather Touch®
is quick and simple - using just a pair of socket wrenches, you can plug and play with the
motorized version within seconds. The
DSM
retrofits to our entire product line, thus extending the return on your investment. You can have
multiple telescopes fitted with individual
DSMs
and simply switch Hubs & Hand Controllers cables.
The primary componants of the system include the Digital Focus Hub (DHUB)that controls the
Focuser Motor (DSM) from either a computer through an ASCOM compliant software interface,
and /or the Hand Controller (DHC) with a digital display. Additionally, a temperature sensor
(DTS)can be added to the system.
