Thanks Robin. I understand the height will vary between setups, but I would work on the principal of the lowest I can get away with. By that I mean the lowest I can have it without the telescope hitting something on its travels.

The telescope is the 152mm f8 but with camera etc. it extends beyond the 1200mm. It doesn't need to be an exact number.

I heard today in fact that I should have mine by Monday (not quite as exciting as Friday though ).
