Hi Jim! Im the prospective buyer, im really appreciative of the care youre putting in to this sale, seriously. . I Just deforked my Meade LX200 12" and its on a losmandy dovetail i got from losmandy

Michael H's friction disks are made from what looks to me to be high temp automotive gasket material. They are very similar to the system used by Celestron on the Nexstar one armed mounts. These again

How well a mount can be guided is complicated and almost all of the factors are beyond the mount itself.? Mount mechanicals, autoguider app tuning and configuration, primary imaging camera pixel size

Thanks Joe and Chip.? I average around 0.8 to 0.9 arc-seconds RMS using a 200mm FL guide scope and ASI120mm camera in the city with a 25 pound imaging setup.? I rarely get any better than 0.75.? I
