200 p dob base

[+Graham]

Any one know where I can get a dob base or the drawings for one.

I have a friend who has had his destroyed in a house move.

Thanks folks

If you can't find someone who's mounted their 200P on an eq mount and wants to get rid of the base Graham, then you could get some ideas from here: http://www.raycash.us/sfsidewalk/cdobplans.htm

 

Or here: http://www.astronomy-mall.com/FirstBase/photos.html

 

Oh and Rusty Strings has built his own base - so send him a pm for plans/tips.

Graham, I thought for a moment that you might be considering building something in wood .

LOL Well, I suppose that could be useful if you want to cast something in aluminium.

 

I know you have already made metal dob bases.
