The cheapest and easiest way to fix that problem is to use a very thick rubber band and a rock. No kidding! I use a rock to balance my tube when I have my SLR camera on the focuser. Never fails. Just get a thick enough and big enough rubberband to fit around the tube. Why spend mega-bucks for those slider weights when all you need is rocks. Just a thought for a easy solution. Good Luck!! |
