I bought an Orion Versago and a 120ST earlier this year. Then bought an additional dovetail and use the Versago with the 60mm. To get rings, I bought the smallest I could find, then shimmed with velour-type weather stripping. (No tripod, and the clamshell for the scope was broken) Works pretty well. -------------------- 3 cats - 4 ferrets 2 Cockatiels Orion 120ST Stellarvue Nighthawk Stellarvue 102APO MiniBorg 50 PST Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on classic scope and (what) modern mount ???
