I know I'm digging up a really old thread here, and Ken, you've probably given up on the
coelostat idea, but:
What about using a normal EQ mount, like EQ6, HEQ5, or whatever, and mounting your
mirror on a linkage that halves the rotation?
You could take the reticle scope cover off as shown in the picture attached, and mount
the mirror on a bearing or bush attached to the end of the polar scope (I've never used
mine, and probably never will) and have a 2:1 linkage that mounts to the top of the pier
or some other convenient spot. The mount could then drive at its normal sidereal rate,
but the 2:1 linkage would halve the rotation of the mirror.
The second attachment shows the general placement. I've not gone in to much investigation
on this as yet. The good thing about this, is that your normal solar scopes can stay tracking
the sun, as shown, and the coelostat mirror can run on the same drive at the same time.
Cheers,
Jason.
