Thanks for the encouragement guys, keeps the enthusiasm going. 47 Tuc is low in my southern sky and somewhat light polluted from my home observation pad. Might have to reserve that one for the dark site west of here although summer will put it higher in the sky earlier so could be easier then.
I am enjoying the build on the 10". Plenty of technical challenges to keep me amused.
The 4.5 dob conversion might be on hold. I have got an old wooden AZ tripod that fits the 4.5" downstairs. Packs down better than the EQM so I'll try that out before building anything else.
