I purchased a Meade ETX 125 OTA which has a plate on the bottom with two 1/4 - 20 holes that was attached to a computer folk. I would like to know how I can attach this OTA to a good Tripod I already have. Can I just use one of the 1/4-20 holes and attach it to the tripod head or do I need something else to attach the OTA. I do not want to spend to much money if I need additional items to attach the OTA.. Any suggestions would be appreciated..

Welcome to TSS!

Just screw the tripod screw into one of the 1/4x20 holes. It may not be perfectly balanced, but the tripod won't mind.
