This is the part that interests me the most, I trialled a very large mount with a lovely smooth PE, but it had a vibration in the images that wasn't there with my EQ6, and I didn't have it long enough to track it down.
I think mounts and piers generally are way, way stiff enough to handle issues of flex. But with autoguiding and PE correction etc. I wonder if there can be issue with resonance (not sure if I am using the right term) in the pier, and if a top plate can make that worse, and if it can, what design considerations would you do to combat it?
I know people use tapered gussests to minimise it on the pier itself, but what about on the plate?
