So I just ordered, received, and installed Michael Herman's clutch disks. Fit and finish were spot on, installed in about 10 minutes, mainly because I am slow, and wow what a difference. Made everything feel like it was locked in with minimal tightening of the axis. One of the difficulties I have been having, and didn't even know it until I tried something better was when leveling the dec and RA for CWD. Before the disks I would level the axis and when cranking down the knob it would rotate the axis about half the time. With the new disks, as soon as they make contact they stop moving need VERY little further tightening. I'm guessing it renders the push-to capability difficult but I am imaging and after turning the scope on in the CWD position I go back in the house.?Nice job on these Michael and if any of you are on the fence about these I highly recommend getting them.

Thank You, Les!
I'm on the fence about them, but that is because I'm nearly to getting my new mount from Losmandy.
You think you are slow? I've been out a mount since November. But expecting to fix that later this month or at the very latest, early March. ;^)

But it is good to read your review of your results. Thanks!
