Fork Mount

[KenGee]

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me if there are any after market Forks mount available other then Mathis Instruments? Want it to carry aroung 50Kg.

I'm fairly certain that Astro-Physics can do them on request with the AP900/AP1200/AP3200 Ra axis with a set of fork arms fitted... I saw a pic of one somewhere.. I'd assume at cloudy nights...

The Mathis instruments ones are a work of art though, as are their G.E.Ms... They are hellishly expensive though..

The AP waiting line would be the killer here.

Well, if my memory serves me right, Beakon Hill Telescopes (UK) comes to mind , they can also provide a range of bearings and worm drives to suit.

They don't have a website , but if you check out the Brit astronomy mags , they'll be there.
