I found the Synta Shoe for Explore Scientific Handle (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2750850) here and liked it for my AR102. My goal was to mount my remote trigger green laser for quick aiming. (No modifications were made to this)
I found the Laser Holder for Telescope (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2301115) but wasn't happy with mounting that way. I preferred using the Picatinny rail and keeping it close to the scope, especially since it was hanging off the side of the scope and I didn't want to bump into it. I had printed a Vixen/Synta shoe with a Picatinny rail but it was missing the small square block that mates to some of these finder shoes and I wanted that to insure alignment after the initial setup so as not to have to check it each time.
I could have just added one to it but I really like the fit of "mianzel's" shoe on the Synta Shoe for the ES Handle I printed so I imported the Laser Holder for Telescope into Sketchup and removed the mount and riser from the foot. I then imported the Mini Picatinny Rail (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:293502) altered it a bit and mated it to the finder shoe. I printed it up and with a little bit of filing, it fits perfectly. The laser was almost perfectly aligned and only required a small amount of tweaking to line it up with the scope
