      I still have the Meade Giant tripod and 16" pillar, so no issues with height. I've got a few ideas on bearings which I'll share if they look like working!

  18. Yikes, while I was having breakfast out in the Sun with the h-alpha scope, the cat sneaked in and ate my breakfast!! She showed no signs of remorse, it looked more like she requires toast with marmalade and orange juice tomorrow morning.
