The 5191 T-slotted base plate provides the first building block for an alignment telescope base.  The large threaded hole in the plate fits on any of our stands or accessories having a 3½" x 8 external thread.  It has two parallel T-slots which provide mounting channels for our 5192 adjustable cone assembly.  The cone assemblies permit the optical axis of any alignment telescope to be precisely adjusted in a variety of ways (shift left-right or up-down, as well as pitch and yaw).  See also related product 5201, which is a similar T-slotted base plate having bolt holes for mounting directly on a surface rather than a stand.
