Thanks for the ideas- at least I have some options other than eq5 or 6.

i am starting to agree- my barn door rig is fine for really wide field, but for long FL i just cant turn the screw without some minute wobble of the whole thing. I cant imagine being smooth enough to manually guide on a eq mount.

will keep looking
