The problem is when i attached my telrad base, i attached it way to close to the finder scope so if i am to use the same screw holes, I will have to move the telrad base. I dont want to have to buy a new base so does anyone know where i can get some of those sticky pads used to hold the telrad base firmly in place on the scope?

Im making a bracket to allow me to piggyback my camera on the scope, as none are currently manufactured for the 6" sct. I want to do this using availiable screw holes, and the only ones availiable are those used to hold on the finder scope bracket.

Any hardware shop like Woodies will have standard two-sided sticky pads. which should suffice if not too thick and flexing but if you want a really good thin double-side sticky pad try a motor accessory shop or dealer parts dept and get those used to stick rear view mirrors to windscreens on older cars.
