Why am I resurrecting this thread?
I have done a bit of work to my dob to see if i could improve the motions.
I ditched the rather tall magic sliders I was using and have applied a pimply laminate to the underside of the rocker box, and going back to the stock pads as supplied.
I was playing with milk bottle washers and couldnt get it right, one extra would make the scope wobble but without it still not enough weight taken on the centre to reduce friction to an acceptable level..... until I tried waxing the laminate and altitude hubs with turtle wax.
Wow what a difference
The scope is moving beautifully now

I just hope that lasts.
The wax is a dry substance so its not going to attract any grit.
