Since I had some spare (cloudy) time I decided to draw the TAL dovetail bar in a 3D modeling tool.
All holes are threaded. From left to right: metric M8, centering pin (8.5mm diameter, tapered at 45°), metric M6, 1/4" photographic thread, one hole with imperial thread similar to metric M8, metric M6, centering pin, metric M8.
In other words: the 2 holes at the center of the TAL dovetail are NOT metric.
-------------------- Tal-200K (#199) with JMI NGF-Mini2M focuser on GEM3 • Astro-Tech AT80ED on Orion Sirius EQ-G with EQDIR & home made wireless EQDIRECT • Celestron Regal LX 8x42 & 10x42 • Helios 15x70
ATM 14" f/5 (designing mirror cell and filter wheel/focuser) • ATM 10" f/6 Portable Truss (polishing) • ATM 10" f/25 Dall-Kirkham (primary: polishing, secondary: #120 grit)
