Hmmmm....very nice Peter. Wish I had an old DK sitting around in my shed...all I have is a mess. Wouldn't mind a 12"Cassegrain on the mount I'm building, might be more managable than an 8" frac. Will watch with interest.
Byers drives are beautiful things, well worth the money. I couldn't find any other maker of such things when looking recently. Old Celestron forks have Byers drives too...could rip one out of there. I bought an old Meade fork that has a nice worm and gear in it...if only I could work out how to open it up without destroying the fork to see if it can be re-used.
