Diy mount hub

Finished fabricating my Diy mount hub. This has auto dew heaters ,6 switchable usb ports ,auto focuser control, 3 power relays and an oled display showing the variable power to each of the three dew bands.Tested and working fine.The hub is fabricated out of 3mm aluminium hollow box section.Only one usb and one power lead to connect to the hub.

that's an awesome idea mate...

Great way to manage everything on the scope..
well done!!

what are the dimensions of the box? does it affect the balance of the scope? did you use separate boards for all the connections on the hub?

cheers
Jeelan
