P.S. For those of you who enjoy adding some artistic flair to your astrophotography, I've also created a Diffraction Spike Generator. It allows you to create custom spike patterns for your telescope, adding that extra sparkle to bright stars in your images. If there's interest, I'd be happy to share more details about this tool as well! Link: https://makerworld.com/en/models/525952

BLUE: My DIY Harmonic Equatorial Mount 🚀🌌

In reality this is harmonic, 1:19 is the nema gearbox, but is connected to an s17 harmonic drive like the one you can find on the zwo am5, the total reduction is 1:1900 per axis -
I'm excited to share my latest project with you all: a DIY harmonic equatorial mount! Design and Construction: I designed and built everything from scratch. It was a challenging but incredibly rewarding experience. Technical Specifications: - Two harmonic drives size 17 - Two Nema motors with a 1:19 ratio - Aluminum body with 3D -printed aesthetic finishes Initial Tests: Using an ASI 585 camera and a Samyang 135 f/2 lens, the mount comfortably supports exposures of 60 and 120 seconds without autoguiding. With autoguiding, I've achieved 300 seconds and I'm eager to test 600 seconds! I'm really proud of the result and can't wait to share more updates and images captured with this setup! Watch my video to know more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7kTkYoBsHY --- Sorry for the AI background in the first picture, but my room is a mess. Hope you like it!
