Fork arms

Netwolfe
Just in case you are interested, I have a set of LX50 fork arms for a 10" tube with mag2 set up for sale. Basically you could name your own reasonable price as I bought a Losmandy with gemin goto for the OTA. My wife wants it out of the house. Mounting the dobsonian on a mounting plate is the way to go as in your photo.
Just thought I would mention it if you are still interested you could PM me
Regards, Allan Gould

What kind of mounting plates or rings are required for this. I am sure it would not be hard to locate unwanted older Fork mounts. Like this one.
