Made a few things for my ZEQ25GT,an extended counter weight shaft along with a 6kg stainless steel counter weight.

I also made a saddle so I could piggy back my AR80S on the 200PDS and use it for guiding.

I intend to replace the bolt with another fitting and find a suitable one for the CW

Nice & shiny, how are the motors coping with the extra weight?

I wanted one of those mounts but saw the latitude adjustment only goes to 60 degrees, since I'm nearly 64 I had to skip it :(

The payload is under the maximum it can handle(27lbs) so shouldn't be a problem :) But it can handle more if needs be
