Telescope and Mount Servicing in Melbourne

Does anyone know any places in Melbourne who service telescopes but more importantly mount servicing? I wouldn't mind having my HEQ5 Pro looked at.

Battes here in Melbourne is shutting up shop

Hi all

I have returned to the work force and now work four days a week as a maintenance person which has limited my time I can devote to my home business.

But at this moment I have no plan to shut shop completely all I have done is change direction and will be mainly just focusing on binocular repair and telescope cleaning which are easy to do with the time I have available eg Weekends.

Cheers

Anthony

G'day Stefan,
I could have a look at it for you. I have serviced, hypertuned and fitted Rowan belt kits to a number Skywatcher mounts, HEQ5's & NEQ6's,
I'm a retired tradie.
I live in Albury, but I travel to Melbourne regularly so if you could get to me in Roxburgh Park I could service and return it to you.

Regards Russ
