These are pretty well known I think but I'll throw up an image if anyone wants one. They're well made and solid.
This one has the adjustment plate for an EQ6 although I have also drilled it out to accept an older Parkes-style mount as well. If anyone wants to mount something else on it, it is a small matter to have a suitable adjustment plate made.
This one came from Sirius Optics and you could get adjustment plates from the manufacturer through them as well I'm sure. This pier set me back a bit over a grand. I'll let it go for say $700 - I'll even throw in the bucket of fine white sand inside (:)) but it is no lightweight and so a pickup or nearby deliver would be the best way to go.
