A quick-release bracket that mounts your Takahashi finderscope and lifts off without tools.
This Farpoint quick-release bracket holds a Takahashi finderscope on your Takahashi telescope’s finder base. The quick-release design lets you lift the finder off and drop it back on without tools, so you can stow the finder for transport or move it between scopes and have it return to the same position. Machined by Farpoint, part of the CXB Astro family.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does this bracket do?
It mounts a Takahashi finderscope onto a Takahashi telescope’s finder base, with a quick-release action so you can take the finder off and put it back on without tools and without losing your alignment.
Does it include a finderscope?
No — the bracket is sold on its own. It’s designed to carry your Takahashi finderscope.
I have a non-Takahashi finder or a small guide scope — will this work?
For a third-party finder or a guide scope such as a QHYCCD Mini Guide Scope or a GSO 8×50 finder, use the Farpoint Takahashi GSO Bracket Adapter instead, which is made to adapt those to a Takahashi base.
