Hello Tim
No update at all as making a driver to make it ASCOM compatible is in the too hard basket at the moment. I have no programming experience at all (BASIC on a C64 I don't think counts!)

I attached the belt to the tube by using double sided tape.
I also then put another,slightly over sized, belt loosely on the tube and that is what the belt from the motor actually binds to, but it is not really necessary and I only did it because it help with an alignment of the stepper and tube.

So some double sided tape on the part of the OTA that will rotate and stick a belt around the tube.

Hope it make sense
Jeremy
