I would like to offer this OTA to my kids on Dob mount. Any recommendations, plans, or abandoned mount in your garage ?
Preferably it would fold so as there would be place for the scope and mount in the trunk on back coutry trips.

=======================

I've got a 6" f5 on a alt-az pipe mount. It works! It also breaks down flat for tiny car storage.
Haven't got a picture, but enter pipe mount into the Search Forums. There are a bunch of threads for different inexpensive/easy options. All can be tweeked as needed.
