A fellow Astromarter suggested that rather than simply replacing my CG5 aluminum legs with steel I go to a wooden surveyor tripod and put the mount on that- anyone know how thick the legs/halves etc. have to be to be able to take given loads? I use my CG5 for both an 8 in. short reflector and a 6 in. F/8 refractor. Thanks.
