Any chance of some pictures?

Would this hold a Meade 10" SCT?

Thanks,
Avron

I know it held an 8" meade schmidt cassegrain , not sure how heavy a 10" schmidt cassegrain is?Could you tell me the weight? alternately if you want to spend more i have a goto lxd55 mount with 497 autostar handbox 30,000 object data base. It was carrying a 13Kg meade sn10.I was keeping it for my 80mm ed skywatcher but might consider selling it.
regards philip
