Yes it is Rob, after or should I say during Qld Astrofest it dawned on me that I needed a equatorial mount that works and is very stable. The meade wedge actually bounces and is a complete pain to set up and i cannot even get to the horizion with it very well if needed. So I thought ai would rationalise it a bit, a smaller scope to use visually and as a guide scope, and somewhere to mount my camera (as well as on the guide scope). I came up with this. It is very "portable', just bring your own forklift
. the Eq6 is heavy, very heavy, but is able to be moved better than the 12" LX200.
