MTO-11 (MTO-11CA) two-point mount with Picatinny rail

Description

2-point mount for soviet 1000mm lens based on Maksutov scheme. It gives more stability for astronomical observation and astrophotography. The standard base is made for the equatorial mount from Bresser National Geographic 76/700 Newtonian telescope (or analogous). Also, you can make your own base for any other mount. This mount also has a 35mm long 20mm Picatinny rail (it can be replaced with any other type of mount) for collimator sight as finder scope. To assemble you will need: Screws: M3x30mm (with hex head) x9 M3x10mm (with hex head) x2 M3x16mm (witn Phillips head) x6 1/4 " D-ring Camera Screw x2 (I used these screws https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32686782590.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.376633edjveLNR ) Nuts&washers: M3 self-locking nut x17 M3 wide washer (od 9mm) x4 2x leather or rubber pieces 25x15mm (thickness of 1,5-2mm) with a round hole d5-6mm for the gasket between the mount ring and the lens case. If you make a base with handle (work on it in progress, I have not tested yet this base) you additionaly needed a M8 self-locking nut and 120mm M8 screw to strengthen the handle. Note: If you're using PLA filament with shrinkage - make the scale 101-103% in your slicer.
