CLC sells one that can be mounted permanently. I think they are about 40 dollars. They show a potential way to mount it also, by cutting a cylindar from wood and then sanding and cutting the deck curvature into it. With the more peakish lines of the AT, you might have an easier time doing the sanding part.
