Only reason for selling is that I am getting too old to use it. Made of treated plywood with inline skate wheels to support Azimuth drive.
Unit has wheels on back so it can be put away in my carport when not in use. Switch controls up/off/down and left/off/right and runs at a safe speed. Altitude drive is by a theatre seat actuator. Azimuth by a modified roller door motor. Can be fitted with other optical gear by adjusting the counterweight springs.
