I appreciate all the comments and suggestions, I really do. I've been playing Astronomer since 1975 and balance was not really a major issue with visual-first few years. The I got the photograph bug and was using a fork mount, these last many years I purchased a Titan--it looked solid. Tonight the guiding is good and the stars are pin points. My balance routing will now change because of this experience. This hobby is such that one never stops learning; got to love it.
