WTB: Dual Arm Astro Slew

Post by jermng »

Hi,

As in the subject, if you have an AstroSlew or other Alt-Az mount capable to holding a C8 w/ 2" accesories, PM me.

Thanks!

Nowadays the original Astroslew I is hard to come by second-hand as it is a 'keeper'. However, I understand that there is a new Astroslew III (one last piece left) still available!

This is true because the mount body is cut from a 5 inch aluminium alloy cube and a lot of material is wasted, it is cost-intensive for both mass production and customization.

I'm gonna mount my WO80 next to it when I hold my mini star parties in Spore for events like the recent Lunar Eclipse or Saturn beach picnic or volunteer at the Malaysian Nature Society. :) Currently I gotta point 2 scopes at the same time and there's always people waiting in line to catch a glimpse of what the person in front is "oooh-ing" about. :) They will also give different perspectives to how objects look like wide and "upclose" :)

When I'm alone I'll prob have just one scope on though. :)
