What equipment choices would you conside to mount 3 scopes on a large enough mount?
I guess you could use a plate and run all three on the plate an attach the plate to the mount via a perpendicular dovetail (the way many folk attach a ED80 and SCT if they don't want to piggy back the ED off the SCT).
But say I want to attach a 9.25 SCT to the mount and want to somehow rigidly attach, align and balance an ED80 and a 5" MAK to the SCT - without overly stressing the SCT tube - what would folk advise?
I guess I'd need the 9.25 to be attached by rings to the dovetail to the mount. Then add extra dovetails and attach to this their own oversized rings with 6 adjustment screws per ring set to align their tubes. And to balance the MAK and the ED80 I probably need the MAK at the 3PM position and the heavier (WO) ED80 at the 11PM or 7PM position.
Any suggestions (other then it will be a mother of an expensive mount that could carry all those scopes - and it would be horrendously expensive to get one with good enough PE to be useful)?
