Very sturdy rocker box for Newton telescopes up to 250 mm aperture (10") from Orion UK.
The individual parts of the rocker box are made of aluminium and can be easily assembled into a complete Dobson mount in no time.
Even at high magnifications, the tube can be adjusted with precision thanks to the Teflon bearings. The diameter of the altitude wheel mount is very large, which allows for smooth altitude adjustment.
The lower weight compared to an equivalent wooden version makes this mount much more portable.
Scope of delivery:
- Rocker box with altitude wheels (without tube clamps)
- Assembly tools
Our expert comment:
The matching rings ("height wheels") – 2 pieces in total – are not included by the manufacturer and must be ordered separately!
