Wanted Losmandy counterweight "Found"

[Striker (Tony)]

I decided to fit my Meade LX200R with some parallax rings to reduce any sign of flex from guide scope to main scope...but now i am slightly under on the counter weight side....has any one got any spares losmandy weights...if not I will make something up myself.

Will consider any weight.

PM me.

Too late for you Tony, but in my "Losmandy" days I got a local machinist mate to spin me a few (it was cheaper to buy the mount without C/W's), and in the past he has used old pulleys and the likes. A 32mm hole, and an M8 screw in the side to tension, then a spray of either clear (if it is straight off the lathe and clean) or a stainless look-alike.
