Well...4 of the 5 boxes have arrived over the past week, in two deliveries, the last box however, containing the counterweight shaft and Dec top plate, seems to have gone amiss though
I have UPS and OPT on to it so hopefully a happy ending
But...seesh, while I fully expected it...seeing it in the flesh, this mount is an absolute beast
and the photos don't do this characteristic justice. A beautiful piece of engineering too though
...a slight element of intimidation is present...and it's a hefty bugger
Lots of fun (frustrating..?) times ahead getting this up and running I can tell
I showed my wife and she rolled her eyes looked at me and said.."So...?..that's a 3 week trip around Europe for us both?".....
