The Libra Alt-Az mount was designed to make the alignment of mulitple scopes task simple and painless. Using a pair of clamps on one side to attach the female dovetail receiver to an existing male D-plate, the Libra will fit directly on to any "D" style dovetail bar. A second pair of larger knobs on the opposite side provide both altitude and azimuth adjustments. I have two available that were used on a E160 42 lbs) and a TEC MC200 (~35 lbs) at HCRO. Optec optional stability bars are included.
