I have finished stage one of getting my little Celestron EQ 130 up and running, well almost finished. Each leg of the tripod has a mind of its own and chooses an unrelated and separate path of travel to that of its brethren. The tripod is like a herd of cats, screaming off in unrelated directions.
The only way I can see to build a more stable platform is to construct a brace for the tripod. I doubt the fix will be decorative but I am searching for function not form. The obvious measures like weighting the tripod have already been done. If you can think of anything, or you have solved a similar problem, I am all ears!

Cheers
