A few little tidy-up changes to the AZ-EQ6GT mount......

It now has a pair of ADM saddle clamps which have been draw-filed and polished to make them pretty....

The saddle locking knobs have been recessed into the top bar by 4mm to turn the 'Slide-in' map into a 'Tip-in' one.....

The counterweight bar now has a flat ground into it that allows dual-mount mode without the threat of the c/w bar rotating as the factory screw is nearly useless....

The itty-bitty factory clamping screw has been replaced with an industrial strength M12 HT clamping lever.... (the lever handle was a bit long so out with the hacksaw, etch primer and satin black epoxy..)

The custom DewBuster Controller is now fitted to the top of the mount using a Polemaster adapter making for easy removal and less stuff hanging off the mount...
