Quick release adapter for my EQ6 on a pillar

[Avdhoeven]

Soon I will get a pillar in my garden and I was looking for a solution to put up my equipment in a quick and repeatable way, without leaving everything outside. A good acquaintance who is a very good metal worker and also into astronomy made this. It's so nice. I have to align it once to the pole when the pillar is placed, and then fix the screws on the underside (the small azimuth screws are only necessary for first alignment) and then I can just put it up and take it off and be pole aligned within seconds... So happy and such a nice piece of work.
