Beautiful job on the scope. I hope you post something about the performance when you get the optics re-coated. I have one of the Cave Transportable 12.5-inch mounts with the big pedestal that I need to restore. Cave must of had a sense of humor when he called it transportable. The difference between it and the other Cave mounts with 1.5-inch shafts is the bigger clock drive and pedestal. Enjoy your scope!
