Celestron CGEM Weight Holder

This is a counterbalance weight holder for the Celestron CGEM mount. It fits standard 1" shaft barbell weights. The CGEM counterbalance shaft is 19mm (3/4") diameter. It is a work in progress but seems to do the trick. It is easy to adjust on the counterbalance shaft for quicker balancing. I used 1/4-20 bolts for the adjustment. I found that the printed threads didn't work too well on the adjustment bolts so I needed to tap them. There are a lot of bolt cap options on thingiverse so I just resided one I found for my use. I printed with PLA+, 80% infill and 3mm walls for added strength. The treads were created by CoolOrange.com free web app.
