Sag over time
Hi Guys and Gals.
Has anyone ever experienced sag or deformation of parts of a mount or scope setup 24/7 in an observatory?
I ask this because I have been thinking. I have around 20kg of counter weights at the end of the bar and 20kg of scope. over time, im talking some years id imagine gravity would gradually deform parts to the point of where the scope or mount is useless or inaccurate.
Has anyone experienced this or thought of this?
Steve
