Guidescope mounting

Recommended Posts

So I need to mount guidescope to ota now the scope does have 2x direct mount points and I have a vixen dovetail spare 210mm long now I could mount direct or leave in a cradle which means it can be aligned easier what are your thoughts, I will get a mounting handle such as in link and mount to ota rings on 200pds

No charge matey. Not for something like this.

If you see me at the Kettering PAS show (March 19) you can by me a coffee 😀

Its been sitting in the garage the last year.

I brought it to use as a handle on my 105 refractor, but it won't fit. You may as have it and make use of it.

 

It will be in the post Tuesday as its a bank holiday tomorrow
