G day Markus,
re making an equatorial platform?; yes, tho i have just built a new base for the 16 and the smooooth movement makes an equatorial platform less of an issue but still very useful for high mag viewing e.g Mars atm. i've been using the 4.7 n the 6.7 2x barlowed and with moist air need to sit n stare steadily to get the momentary good views.
i am confident that perhaps with a little trial and error i can do the timber work n cos i move around a bit make a series of arc segments (as per Jerry's doweled design and using his drawing technique) but need to learn something about motor drives - tho it seems they are a simple proposition also.
congrats on the many comps for your pics,
L
