I just bought myself a HEQ5 PRO mount, but I am worried I am loading it up too much with my 40 mm refractor.
Actually I'm waiting for tube rings so I can throw the 8" Newt on there, but I couldn't resist putting the toilet roll tube on and taking it for a slew around the sky.

Where did you find counterweights light enough for that rig? Is the bar enough by itself?
Gee Andrew, If Id known it would carry all that weight I wouldn't have sold it.
As you can see, I remembered how to put it all together again when I got it home. Let's see if I can remember your great instructions on how to polar align it when the time comes.
