Installing feather touch and drilling OTA for finder

[Hitesh]

Hi guys I'm considering a feather touch focuser on a SW80ed and wanted to know how easy or complicated it is to fit the focuser and drilling OTA to fit the finder

Not sure about the focuser, I would presume that a suitable adaptor is available for the SW80ed. To fit the finder, (do this before fitting the focuser so that you can cean out any swarf from the drilling) mask off the area where the finder is to fit with masking tape and mark through the finder base holes on to it, the tape will help prevent the drill bit slipping. Use a small drill bit to pilot the holes and then open them up to the correct clearance size if you are bolting through or tapping size if it is to be a screw in fit.
