Thanks Greg and John.

Yes I can lift the OTA from the base. However, I think I will need to take off the ALT bearings to fit the rings.

My first step is going to be to get an EQ6. Then I will try to fit the SW OTA on it.

It this doesn't work. I will either get a SCT or a Newtonian OTA. Btw, out of curiosity, can a 12" Newt be mounted the EQ6 for AP? Or is it pushing the mount to its limits?

Thanks again for your advice.

Cheers,

Eric
