Vixen style Dovetail mount for Guide scopes

This is a mount to attach a telescope with a vixen style dovetail as a guider. I made it for my Meade 6600 with 50mm M6 holes, on the ring. I've used it to mount a Celestron Travel 70 for use as a guide scope, which uses a webcam (Logitech 9000) to get somewhat decent guiding in tests before mounting it.

The OpenSCAD should be pretty easy to read. Look for the clamp width, clamp_mount_hole_distance (50mm by default), clamp_mount_screw_diameter (6mm default).

The screws both need to be on the same part of the clamp, so clamp_mount_hole_offset does two things, offsets it from the center, AND widens the part.

It uses M8 Screws for the clamping. You can adjust that with clamp_screw_outer_diameter, and clamp_screw_pitch=1.25. (For those of you who can't get metric hardware (Fellow Americans you should be converting!) for the pitch divide 25.4 by the tpi. For 5/16th, use 7.9375 and 1.4111)

I may modify this to have the Raspberry Pi on the side of it. (I love this thing, but until I figure out some way to get it to work better for me (which includes a V2 NoIR camera, which I hope will fix the issues), https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2457867 I unfortunately don't find it usable.)
