Hi All,
I'm in the process of making my 'Covert Pier' to be fixed in the hole
prepared in the earlier thread, and am wondering how high I should
make the post.

Essentially I need to know at what the height above ground should be
for the centreline of the OTA at the top of the pier. Does this height
vary between scope types, ie would pier height be different for Newt
vs Refractor vs SCT/RC ?
EDIT: At the moment I'm using either an ED80 or an 8" f/6 Newt. Later
I am considering the 12" Newt or buying an RC, as big as will fit on an
EQ6Pro head.
Cheers,
Jason.
