base plate 251mm dia x 10mm thick
top gussetts 6mm x 32mm x 128mm
base gussetts 6mm x 50mm x 200mm
total weight 9.4kg
Current lead time is around 2 - 3 weeks
Price for this pier will be under $500 from Sirius Optics
Houghy:
Will be looking at making an adapter plate for the EQ6 ASAP.
Pics will be posted for that one soon.
Am working on a couple of designs suitable for the LX200's which sould be finished within a week or so, pics to follow. Also hope to have this one independantly tested and reviewed, stay tuned.
For any other info that I've overlooked, please post in here or message or email me.
