Diameter of the Losmandy AZ8 6" riser?

[happycamper]

Hi All,

'Currently have a DM6 mount and although the 8" Riser that comes with it is excellent, I'm wondering about putting two 6" risers together to get a bit more height - but only if the risers will fit nicely under my DM6.

Does anyone have the new AZ8 mount and if so, what is the maximum diameter of the 6"-high riser? (ie. the one with the 6 posts).

Thanks!
John

Hi John from what I can recall when I had my Losmandy Mount I'm pretty sure the inside diameter is 140mm with very slight clearance either way, but you had better check with others before you purchase.

Thanks Leon,

Appreciated. Was that the AZ8 Losmandy ALt-AZ Mount or an older one?

cheers
