Hi,
Just picking this thread up again now that I have acquired an EQ6. I was going to pose the same questions but most are answered here.
One concern is that 6mm bolts seem so small to be holding a 10” newt and possibly a camera etc. Surely bigger bolts would be the go? Do any of you drill out to a bigger size and tap the hole?
I imagined that the block on the tube ring would sit inside the channel, not sit bridged over it. It doesn’t seem quite so secure where the bolt isn’t holding metal to metal.
