Hey All,
Im planning an adapter plate for my EQ6, its basically the same as this
http://www.altairastro.com/product.p...9&cat=0&page=1
I have almost finished the cad drawing of it
I need someone who can machine it, all of it should be doable on a lathe, I will do the drilling etc. all that needs to be done is machine a 150mm piece of flat round to a nice surface and do the holes in the middle.
I have been priced a 100mm long piece of aluminium 150mm round for about $60. If anyone is interested to go halves in it with me, as only 50mm is needed we could get 2 adapters for $30 + cost of machining. If someone on iceinspace would be willing to do the rest of the work it could workout to be a decent price in the end. A lot better than $200 for 1 adapter.
So I put the call out there,
if anyone is interested in a EQ6 adapter for $30 + machining cost PM me.
If anyone owns a lathe and is interested in some reasonably easy work for fellow IIS members Pm me.
Steve
