The mounting plate is designed to fit George's home built mount. This will require a new design to fit a Losmandy type saddle. The other scope for this mount is a 6" F/5 newt that features a ZerodurŠ primary and a 3" m.a. quartz secondary. A rack-and-pinion focuser moves the primary mirror. This scope was a 1988 Stellefane award winner in the following three catagories: Optics, Workmanship and Design. You can see a low res pic of George and his observatory here: link
