2 new scopes (to go with the others)

This is my other imaging setup. Its a bit easier to carry in and out of the house.

Cant wait until I start work on building the obsy.... Just too cold at the moment.

The two pictures are the first two I have tried with it. Still trying to get the hang of guiding. They were taken piggyback...

Nice, but why do you extend the legs? I never do that...

Dunno, never really thought about it. Think it must be because i hate bending down. (i'm nearly 7 feet tall...)

I notice that you have one leg in the south position. Move the black peg on the tripod base to the other side (there is a threaded hole available there too) and you will have free reign of the territory around the polar scope. Like this:
