Hi guys
Can everyone share their bubble level solution for their Avx mounts.

I've seen things like this for sale online:

I've just been using a basic spirit level ruler from Bunnings in the mean time since I already owned it for home DIY projects. But I've kept an eye out for something simple that I can permanently attach to my AVX tripod.

I use a turntable spirit level. They are only a few dollars.

Cannot believe the starizona level is up to 75 dollars usd to ship to australia and costs 14 usd.

Has anyone made a flat round plate like a dohnut shape with a teardrop type extension so you can rest or stick a bubble level to. Would go between the mount and the mount head.

Hi Kon,

I use one of these successfully on a number of mounts (Meade LX90, Celestron CG5, SW AZEQ6 & now on a Berlebach & Ioptron CEM25).

I level my tripod prior to fitting the head... simply place it on top & rotate it around to check various axis...

Also comes in handy with home handyman projects where a small spirit level is needed...

Cheers
