I have my telescope pier for sale. This has served me very well for the last 6 years and had transformed my astronomy and imaging as I had it permanently outside with my mount.
I decided to go for the non rat cage design which is much more sturdy and overall a better design.
I had my HEQ5 pro mounted on this with a dedicated adapter plate. Easy access through the cut out opening at the front to mount your respective adapter plate.
I also had some pipe welded to the sides as I had various accessories attached.
The top and bottom plates are slightly warped but it didn’t affect the mounting and use of the pier as I had it dynabolted into the ground it did not move a millimetre in the time I used it.
Dimensions (mm)
Height (from top plate to bottom plate): 1015
Bottom plate: 250x250
Top plate: 168x168
It is very heavy and will take one Arnold Schwarzenegger to carry it or two humans.
Asking $250 pickup only.
PM for questions and location!
