Telescope focus motor bracket

An adapter for a stepper motor to focus a generic Newton telescope. Parametric, so configurable for most telescopes.

Description

I have a very generic Newton telescope, and wanted to try using it for astrophotography, which is way easier if you can adjust the focus remotely. So I printed this bracket for the ubiquitous 28BYJ-48 stepper motor, with an adapter to fit over the existing focuser knob. It should be fairly easy to adapt to other telescopes, I tried to sufficiently comment the SCAD file :-)
