Thankyou for those compliments... I also do internal mods to the MT i.e.
Bearing upgrades, respringing of the motors conbined with polishing the mating surface of the stopblocks. This mod enables me to adjust these stopblocks closer to the motor end ribs which reduces the wiggle you can sometimes get when focusing with larger or longer OTA's... In my opinion a very worthwhile mod. For the version one MT I also make a heavy duty DEC/ALT clutch which has about 400% more surface area, so there are many things one can do to make these a fun mount to use.
I have also made a wedge for my personal mount but that is another story.
cheers.
Graham.
