I'm seriously thinking of getting a pier in my backyard for my G11. Nothing fancy but just something sturdy and level that I can stack the mount on and off quickly when setting up so I don't have to haul my tripod all over the place and level and polar align all over again.
I read a lot of stuff on these forums about DIY obs but I have a couple of questions as I don't know where to start really and this is new to me.
Where can I get and adapter to attach the G11 head on. Is it a standard Losmandy thing or I need to get it made? Or may be just a custom plate is the way to go? What's best?
Also is it best to get a steel pier pre-made or get the preform tube packing and pour concrete to make the column?
Thanks for any tips.
