3D Models
To get well-defined threads, i recommend printing with a layer height of 0.12mm.
DIY Helical Focuser
This thing is not perfect but it works. I used threaded inserts and m3 bolts to hold the handle together and put some grease on all surfaces that rub against each other. There was no backlash when i printed it with a layer height of 0.12mm but some work was necessary to get the parts for fit.
Bresser Messier to LS60MT
This is the adapter i use to connect the focuser of my bresser messier AR152L/1200 to my Lunt LS60MT etalon. I drilled 3 holes into the threaded extension tube that came with the scope too really make sure that the etalon is connected. The 3 holes on the etalon side get threaded inserts with thumb screws.

Baader D-ERF 160mm Cell
A filter cell for holding a Baader D-ERF on the inside of the dew-shield of a Bresser Messier AR152L/1200. To be sure that the dew-shield does not disconnect from the scope i screwed it into the lens cell.
Coronado BF10 straight
Adapter to make diagonal BF10 a straight one. To stop dust from collecting in the diagonal i also designed a dust cover.

LS60MT to LS50C
Adapter to connect LS50C front mounted etalon to LS60MT scope.

2'' Extension 80mm
The filter thread might not work but it extends, which is good because it's an extension tube. Made this because i needed one and the metal version is expensive!

LS50C without housing to T2 female
I use this adapter to connect my LS50C without its red housing to a Baader TZ-4S using a T2 thread.

LS50C back thread to T2 male
Makes it possible to connect for example a camera using a T2 thread to the back of an LS50C etalon.

Adapters from female T2 to male T2

Camera Tilter
This thing helps me get ride of the newton rings I get when using a double stacked setup for closeups. It's in now way perfect. The two small holes on the left an right are meant for screws that can hold a rubber band to tension the tilter. The 5 holes on the bottom side are used to screw in something like a part of an old credit card to act as a basic hinge. I use a threaded M4 insert in the camera side hole with a thumb screw to set the tilt.
I might redesign this at some point, but for now it is good enough.

LS50C Housing
This is a 3D printed version of the RS-Foto housings for back mounted etalons, allowing for tilting. The back thread is the same as the on found on the back of an LS50C, this might not be optimal. I'm thinking about redesigning this to use a female T2 thread in the back. Three threaded M4 inserts are used to close the housing.
