Samson Mount
Greetings,
I have just aquired an old scope, that is mounted on a samson mount, haven't got a lot of details of when it was built, I believe it was made by Astro Optical ( Amateur astronomers supply co. ) quite some time ago.The counter weights were made in Cairns.
It is my intention to restore the scope and mount over time.I need input as to how the mount was contructed,and how it can be pulled apart to check all bearings,etc.
Any info would be appreciated. Cheers. Kevin.
