Mini mount with tripod for tracker

hi guys,

the clearing continues.
I have this mini mount and table tripod combination for sale.
It's designed to be used with the wide field photo trackers like the vixen polarie and astrotrac etc.
The mount is very compact and really heavy duty.
It comes with an additional thick (1cm or so) aluminium washer.
It's mounted on the table tripod through a 3/8" thread in the bottom. It's easy to adjust for polar alignment.

In hindsight the photos are not great: the mount head is supposed to rest on the red support, this is how it can handle lots of weight - sorry for the bad photos

I am not sure how much weight it could take, but I would think it could handle 5kg easy, it's quite a beefy setup.

In good condition, a few marks of use.

$85

+$7.60 shipping Australia wide

Thanks and PM if interested
Tom

Added a photo on how it is mounted to the Vixen Polarie.
The Aluminium spacer located between the Polarie base and the mount as well as the locking screw that connects to the Polarie are supplied.

Also found this video showing the assembly on an Astrotrac.

I have seen an ad on ebay showing mounted on a nano tracker, it's quite a versatile little mount

Thanks guys
