Look what I made at the Mens Shed

A dob mount for the GSO 8 inch f/5 ota i bought from Glend a few months ago. Nothing out of the ordinary, except the tube box has a removable top section that clamps down, so i can remove the tube as well as rotate it easily. Shown here, the top section raised a little showing the four threaded bolts in each corner. Wing nuts clamp it down on the tube. I found it only needed two to do the clamping, so a further mod on the way.
