Thanks again for the imput , insights etc. I'm almost sold on an 9 point cell, the triangles will be 6mm aluminium plate, mounted to an aluminium and plywood base. Although the velcro idea sounds so simple, I'm assuming that it was adhesive backed velcro.
Another question is what materials to use for the pads on the triangles, nylon, teflon, cork or felt or something else, have read via Cloudy nights, some conflicting views on some . Also, not sure I'm comfortable with metal bearings of the wiffle tree being in contact with the glass, to my mind there is a chance of chipping the glass when bouncing around when being transported.
Scott, I like the collimation knobs being where you have them, makes the task much easier than crawling around on he ground.
