Nice!
Don't take this the wrong way but..,
(a) Does your Gemini-II actually work?
(b) Was the new manual included in your documentation set?
My understanding is that the software is still being worked on with beta testers at present, sooooooo.., you could understand my being somewhat curious..,
Thanks and regards,
skybsd

Homemade GEM Mount
Nice mount! Nice to see another person building a GEM themselves. Did you make your clock drives?

Hello, That is impressive making your own clock drives! How did you cut the gears? What kind of precision were you able to maintain?

That's a very professional and stress relieving setup! Someday, in my own observatory, I'm going to make sure mine is also anything but cluttered. I can't stand clutter.
