Made a nice adapter plate for the Parallax rings. Tapped base pillow block 1" shafts using sheaves with clamping screws. brass piece is a slip ring for declination. All I need to do is make the latitude adjuster and find another RA drive. Be nice to find a small Beyers gear like I had. Most of the stuff he's got on the bay is larger Post Extras:       Pages: 1 Previous   Index   Next   Threaded   Extra information 15 registered and 38 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
