Losmandy 90mm mounting rings....

I finally got my Losmandy mounting plate and 90mm mounting rings for my 60mm Refractor (guidescope)





Losmandy mounting plates and rings sure are rigid and pretty heavy :!:

I had to move the finder scope and it's bracket because a screw was in the way.....





Now it's totally ready

Marty,
Nice setup, one thing I found (at least for a fork setup) is to have the rings centered on the center of gravity of the guider scope.
In other words, have the 2 rings equidistant from the guidscopes center of gravity, and then adjust the rings on the slider rail (without moving them relative to the guidescope) so that the OTA is balanced in the dec axis.

You declination axis will be easier to get balanced which is important for longer motor life, this also helps reduce periodic error in the drive.

Looks the business!

Marty,

You did remember what I said about putting the short screws down the main mirror end of the tube?? Otherwise they interfere with the focussing as the mirror moves up and down. Double check if you havent done already.

Yes Dave, I checked that while putting the mounting plate on...there are not reaching, there fine
