Hello everyone,
I have tried to find on the forum a solution to my question, to no avail unfortunately.
I have a 12" F5 OTA , I'v sold eq mount and the other bits it came with and I was wondering if anyone can point me out (or discourage me) on how to build a dob mount using the bar that joins the rings together, I was thinking to drill it and find a way to make an enough sturdy arm with plywood.
I am ok working out the dob base but I am not actually clear on how can I make it work on one arm (knob, teflon to be used etc)
Can a one arm mount be built or the weight will be too much counting that I am dealing with a 30ish Lbs tube please?
I am contemplating this alterantive in order to avoid buing a router just for this job and take advantage of the fact that I could make only straight cuts using a saw/circular saw.
Thank you for any reply and I am so sorry if I maybe did not explain myself correctly. English is not my first language and tech jargon is a tad difficult to grasp for me.
