I wanted to add a setting circle and inclinometer to my Hadley telescope build, but since the bars are non-magnetic aluminum I needed a way to mount the level.

This uses Ivan Urbanek's Dovetail mount which has 60 degree angles. The interior size of the cup exactly matches my Johnson-brand level, but I believe the Wixey will be the same: 59.2x59.2x28.6mm.

Designed to print with the dovetail down as shown in the pictures. No supports needed. Printed at 0.16mm layer height, but my test print at 0.24mm also worked just fine.

Model was created in OnShape and is available here.
