Hi all,
Murphy's law gets you every time, get a clear night after a long winter of crappy skies and $h!t happens. :mad2:
Well while moving my pier with the Super Polaris EQ mount and counter weights still fixed to it, went over a small bump and the sudden stop at the bottom, less than 25mm drop shocked the mount adjustment plate and unfortunately snapped it in half.
Does anyone know if there are parts available for these old mounts? :help:
I have the tools to make a modified repair if needed but just a replacement part would save a lot of rebuilding.
So if anyone has seen parts for these advertised anywhere I'd be grateful if you could let me know.
Thanks
Nico
