I recently put my hands on a very old Starfinder Equatorial, the 10 inches one. The mount came with no declination control, neither manual nor electric.
Does anyone have a source where to find ideas and plans about how to make one? I know what Meade's looked like but copying that requires tools I don't have. An el cheapo solution would be more like it ...

This picture is the best one I could find online.
I think it says it all.
