Thanks Tim,

The unfortunate thing is that the weight of this 14" unit and the height of the eyepiece once its elevated by any platform would be an issue as it is ideally eye level when aimed at zenith when flat on ground

You have given me some ideas though for sure

Weight, optical tube: 29.1kgs.

Weight, mount / tripod: 43kgs.

Weight, fully assembled: 72kgs.
