Losmandy G-11 users may find this page of use. A lot of what is mentioned would also apply to the Losmandy GM-8.

Thanks for this John :)

There are a lot of machined bits and pieces that make up a G-11!

Very useful! :thumbsup:

I don't think his wife will be happy with him using the "sacred kids bunny rug" to lay out his parts! ;)

Thanks John

That looks like my garage floor a few months ago Chris. Definitely a bonus to have a sheet to lay it all out in order

The hardest part is getting the gear mesh right again. Its easier than it looks Frank. It took me three years to pull mine apart. Now that I have I wouldn't think twice about doing it again. Except for the fact my pointing accuracy is so good I don't want to change it :)
