Great overview. Thank you for posting this. Do you have any particular bag/case recommendations for the tripod and the mount (with rising pier attached)?

[@SpaceForEverybody]

Sorry for the delay in response! Have been traveling. I do have a good recomendation for the Planet Tripod or Uni-18 Tripod- This case on Amazon (Large Version) fits it PERFECTLY- www.amazon.com/SKB-Standard-Interior-Traveling-Reliable/dp/B0000AUB58/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1TGLOVEDHD0QU&keywords=SKB%2BGolf%2Bcase&qid=1688400886&sprefix=skb%2Bgolf%2Bcas%2Caps%2C83&sr=8-2&th=1 And here's a photo of mine inside the case: space4everybody.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/SBK-case-and-AZ100-1024x576.jpg

What did you use to mount the laser pointer? Neat way to do so.

Its a great mount isn't it ? One of my astro buddies has it with the motorisation option. And the motors are so quiet !! But, all things considered, it's an expensive set up. I actually prefer my own DM6 / Nexus DSC, as its quite a bit less cost, and so minimalistic and easy to use. It doesn't need the slo-mo cables either ; i can comfortably hand track at high power.
