Thanks. I tried to keep the length down as much as possible but sometimes you notice other points that you think potential owners might find valuable so it just grows bigger than expected

Phil, thanks for the review and clutch mod details. 
I have recently purchased the Minitower MK2 which is essentially a Minitower PRO, and would like to see any pics/details of other enhancements you have.

No problem. The upgrades are really well done by a private individual in New Zealand who specializes in Ioptron Mods for the Minitowers.
I don't have his permission to publicly post his contact/details but will ask.
Essentially the main mods are:
- New Replacement Clutch made of Teflon (the white washer pictured already)
- Hand Controller Cradle (pictured on the side of my mount) This is really practical
- Tripod Spreaders and Tray adds excellent stability to the tripod and a good tray for goodies
- Pier Adapter/Extension - Solves the problem of the OTA running into tripod legs
All parts are really well made and come with bolts/screws that match the existing Ioptron heads and sizes so they are well thought out too.
Cheers
