Neq6 stripdown

[dazzauk83]

Hello.

I was wondering if anyone does a complete strip down and reworking of a neq6 service. I have seen astrobabys guide and although it's very clear and precise. I am very hamfisted and not confidant in doing it myself.

Does anyone off a paid service perhaps?

Cheers

Thanks alot

Quite cheap aswell for the amount of work involved.

Graham at Astrotec does amazing work and keeps you informed all the time. I had a complete strip down and belt drive mod done earlier this year and the results are fantastic. Far from almost writing my mount off and spending an awful lot on something else, he has offered it a new lease of life and it should be great for a few years to come. You can find more information on him at East Midland Stargazing Forum and Astronomy Shed.

How much does the belt mod cost? Herd good things about that and I may aswell kill two birds with one stone and have that done.

Well im due to have my mount back Tuesday. Sent it to Graham at astrotec and the service has been great. 

He sends you a picture of your mount in bits lol. And also a presentation video of it working after the work is done. Thanks for the recommendation . I will go back when i decide to have the belt mod.

Here is the picture of it in bit's.

Mine will be going to Graham on Wednesday for strip/rebuild and belt mod to be fitted. Let us know your opinion on first use when you get it back.

Set the mount up last night. Very pleased with how it moves now. Much smoother and sounds much better.
