What the thread found

• Preston sells a complete H-shaped bracket that screws to the four corners of the MDR and includes a dovetail shoe that slides into a T-bar.
• GPI supplies dovetail brackets compatible with Preston and Bartech systems, available for approximately fifty dollars.
• The dovetail mounting holes align with the standard bracket holes on certain motor driver models, allowing adaptation to Arri systems.
• Bartech receivers accept dovetail shoes that can be mounted to compatible brackets from multiple suppliers.

Depends on

• Information dates from 2008 and may not reflect current product availability or specifications.
• Bartech dovetail availability at GPI was reported as backordered at time of discussion.
• The specific DB3 model compatibility mentioned may no longer apply to current production versions.
