That comes supplied with the reducer. Can introduce tilt if not secured central to the imaging train. Otherwise you'll have to use a 2" nosepiece at the end of your equipment - telescope side.

They said, once tighten, it was rock solid right?

Yes, I was using mine last night. I find just positioning the reducer on the rotator then leaving it there. It makes tear down and setting up your imaging train a lot easier.

An update on the 3D Printed Bahtinov Mask and Riser should anyone want them.

Hi Skyline

I have just set up my 62ED for the first time proper. The only way l can get it to balance is by removing the bottom locking thumbscrew so l can get the dovetsil far enoughback. Do you know if anyone makes the 10mm riser as not really happy using the scope without that bottom thumbscrew.

Regards.

 

Steve.

I will 3d print one for you. Please PM me your details. 

Thanks.

My latest incarnation with the Evolux62ED, taken with a ASI1600MM Pro, hardly get time to image with Mono.
