Hi All
The construction of the pier has commenced , I am making a copy of my Eq6 adapter to bolt to the top plate as the total cost for the adapter is less than R 30.00 (AUD 3) from scrap metal.
I decided on 310 mm 8mm wall thickness pipe at 1m pier height with 16mm base plate and 12mm top plates.
I need to construct two piers , I am using the rats cage construction on this one , I would like to see for myself how this will effect the performance of the mount with regard to astrophotography , if need be I can always change the design later , I have run out of time and need to complete this project before all the engineering shops close for the festive season.
Wish me luck
