Fair question, Rob. I have managed to hurt myself over the years. Dislocated shoulder and a couple of bad elbows.

While I CAN move the AP around it weighs in at 80 pounds as pictured. The little cat, I can pick up with one arm as a complete unit and put it where I want.


I also got rid of my ancient Coulter 17.5" dob for the same reason. I was fond of it too. My wife used to refer to it as the "Circus Cannon".
