Using my scope in Alt-Az mode required a locator plate to safely locate the bottom of the scope to the Meade field tripod whilst fumbling around in the dark.
After changing to an equatorial wedge I have been looking for a good eyepiece tray but alas could not find one, so I decided to modify the deluxe locator instead.
Just flip the locator plate over and drill 3 new 10mm holes for the bolts on the tripod, bolt it all back together and you've got a very useful eyepiece tray in equatorial mode.
