i have recently installed a belt drive conversion into my NEQ6 Pro.
When I went to astr-baby's website for the brilliant tutorials on adjusting the NEQ6, the site is no longer available 😧
Has it gone forever?
Does anybody happen to have the guides in PDFs format?
I read through the guides before but didn't download them. They were awesome.

It must have only went down in the last few days, that was a nice resource.
Which guides did you need?

Annoying way to do it, but install a cached page viewer and start from there. Some pictures won't load, but use the descriptions at least.

Here is an example: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ast ro-baby.com%2Fheq5-rebuild%2Fheq5-m1.htm

Good luck!

I would have liked all the guides. As you say, that was a great resource.
The most important ones at the moment though are the ones to adjust the backlash in the RA and Dec.

I have all the EQ6 pages in print. I'll take photos of all the pages and post them here very soon.

Thanks JJJ, better than nothing, PDFs are a better portable package though.

I've PDFs of the EQ6 and HEQ5 rebuilds from Astrobaby, maybe Mike could host them on site, otherwise I'll happily email them to anyone that needs them.

Cheers
