Meade tripod Castors, 10inch Wedge, Field tripod

I have finally de-forked my 10inch LX50 have the following looking for a good home.

- Meade field tripod M2080 for 10inch LX50/200 $150 SOLD

- Meade wedge plate for 10inch LX50/LX200 $125 - Sold 14/1/13


I also recently purchased castors for the Meade M2080 tripod.
8 or 10inch LX200 etc.
Scope Roller for M2080 Meade tripod $150 + Freight

http://www.scoperoller.com/casters.shtml
After I fitted these my observing time substantially increased. So if you can roll your scope out the garage door for a quick 30mins of observing I recommend these. Only 12months old in as new condition. Paid $200USD asking $150 + postage

Hi Jason,
The tripod is for Meade's 10inch SCT LX200 which must be well over 20Kgs.
The web site lists height range as 860mm to 1370mm.
I'll make an actual measurement when I get home tonight.

I have added a photo showing the dimensions of the castors.
Also checkout this link for details.

Note the M2080 is not the current Meade tripod as a small change was made some years ago, check your paperwork for the model number of your tripod or see the web site for details.

Cheers Kevin

castors

Hi, are the castors still available? and if so would they be suitable for the LX200R?
