Ok, I broke down and have some guide scope rings coming from Scopestuff.com.....and 2 more lbs of weights.
I intend to mount my 80mm Celestron widefield on the LX90 8", to use at public observing events, and to try out a little "image guiding". Here is my problem....... I mounted my Telrad dead center in the top of the scope......now I need to remove it and mount the guide scope rail and rings.....how do I get the Telrad off without breaking it....and or ruining the paint on the LX90??? Advice please.
