Ten boxes, the heaviest was the pier and weighed 31
pounds.

Another view, pondering how long this will take!
|
Now they are all opened waiting for me to get at it.

One half of the equatorial head.

The Manual...
|
The pier is set up. My Mewlon 250 is in the background.
|
Another view of the pier. That guy is sturdy!
|
Day 2, now 1/2 of the equatorial head is installed.
|
About aligned for my latitude.
|
The second half of the head is now installed.
|
The rear of the mount showing wire management. Genius!
|
More wire management with the GTO box installed.
|
From the front. Day 3 will put in the counterweights, dovetail and
C14.
|
The dovetail and counterweight bar is now attached.
|
We've added the three 24 pound counterweights.
|
The C14 is installed on the dovetail.
|
From a different angle. The house in the back ground is to the east of
me. Decent eastern sky, no western sky.
|
Ready for first light. They make a handsome pair! My brother-in-law and
I are off to Five Guys for burgers!
