Counterwight holder for telescope mounts
Description
Hi I designed a simple system for holding dumbbell weights on the counterweight bar of astronomical telescope mounts. This makes an improvement on the rolls of cardboard that I used to utilise. Has not yet been used in anger as yet (i.e. on my mounts), but seems promising. Obviously I offer no warranty or guarantee that this will work - so use at your own risk. The option without the flange on the end is for when I squish my dumbbell weight between two proper Skywatcher weights. I made the settings quite tight, so some reduction engineering (sanding) was required. You can play with the settings to suit your need and level of sanding that you want to do! This is my first 3D project. Please let me know if this is useful to you. Thanks, Enjoy!
