Just wanted to post some info about ADM mounting systems. I wanted t mount a Vixen VMC95L to my Meade LX200 10". My first thoughts were a Losmondy dovetail plate and some mounting rings. I was knocked over when I found out the cost involved in this simple mounting process. This hobby can really rape your wallet.

I was looking on the net at other options when I found a site that makes all sorts of mounting options for scopes and many are fully compatible with other brands on the market. I am always a little unsure of purchasing from sites on the net so I look for reviews on these mounts. All the things I read were very good and I thought I would go for it. I purchase a guide scope kit that had a lightweight mounting bar (dovetail) and I could choose my ring size that I needed. It ended up costing me less than half the price including shipping ($30us) to get the system to my door. It is already mounted on my scope and I am very happy with the quality of the product. The mount is rock solid!

We have a bit of cloud here tonight so I hope to have my first attempt at setting up a guiding system with my SPC900nc webcam. I hope to use K3CCDTOOLS or PHD to do the guiding. Another new endeavor towards getting better pictures and loving all the learning this hobby brings.

I am in no way connected with ADM, but wanted to share my experience in the hope others that are not aware can save some money on quality equipment. If you are anything like me, money is getting very hard to get hold of and keep...


Thanks for reading my info
