Vixen Mount Repair / Replacement needed

[DannyV]

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to contact the Guy in W.A. that Repairs mounts, I 've forgotten his name, and the very time I wanted to contact him, he's not about.
Can someone let me know who to contact please?

My travel Vixen mount has a broken break shaft, and I'm wondering if someone can sell me a replacement or can repair it please?

(Please ignore the yellow wire that I'm keeping it all together with in the photos).

Many Thanks,
Danny

Contact Steve Massey at myastroshop.com.au (email info@myastroshop.com.au) - I had him order in all manner of spares for a Sphinx SXW (I still have NEW blue side covers etc).

He ordered me in the entire replacement head (spindle included) - it was not much at all. Get in SOON though as Vixen does not make the SXW now and parts are running out.

Whole replacement head cost me $75 by memory

Thanks Lewis,

Turns out they are no longer stocked, so they have to make them to order, it's going to cost me $190 Inc + $14 freight from Astro.

Has anyone got a good one for sale cheeper than that, by any chance?

If not, I might try re-constructing this one.
