Bintel alt/az mount

Another item during my clean out .
Here is the Bintel alt/az mount that I just don't use any more so it might as well go to a good home and be used .

Its the Bintel branded mount that is in good condition , just a few marks from normal use and on that these are really good solid mount easily taking up to a 100mm refractor or 6 inch SCT .

It has motor drives on both axis that work really well but for some reason the top button has broken off ( see 2nd photo ) , this one changes direction of the altitude motor from memory , it still works and is easily changed by using a small nail to switch it over .

These switches are found at Jaycar for $5 , I don't have the time and would be an easy fix .

Because of this I will let it go for $250 + post , these were $379 without the motor drives when sold .

Brian.
