Suporte Laser Polar EQ3 mount

thingiverse

Here in the south we have some difficulties for the polar alignment because we don't have a star as bright as the polaris as a reference, adding to that, the lower equatorial mount doesn't have a polar locator, so the way was to create my own and join it to the assembly . I downloaded a ready Stl in the thingiverse (credits charlesodonnell) and modified the base in Sketchup to screw in the assembly. It was very firm and stable. The screws for adjusting the green laser will be replaced with suitable ones, perhaps made of nylon. The equatorial mount is an eq3 that comes with the worst Greika telescopes here in Brazil. This assembly is similar to an Exos Nano by Explore Scientific.
