@ thx for answer 🤗👍! Thats rubber is not avaiable in Austria 😂👍i test another one! What do u put on the „top“ of the rubber?! It fix so good 💪🏻

@@andilaimi709 If I remember right, I just cut a piece of 1/8 ABS plastic with a hole saw, then drilled the center out.. I think it was 2, and I stacked them

Glad it was helpful!

Depends on the subject..The moon, sure, Jupiter and Saturn, not amazing, DSOs, no way. I was able to get some pics of the Orion Nebula, but the stars were oval. I use a CGEM now...much better(but still not mind blowing).

I think for my purposes I need the CGEM. But I really did enjoy the forks and NGC-Max for visual observation. I do not plan to re-fork and am selling the fork setup on Cloudy Nights.

I'm selling this very setup on Cloudy Nights. My C11 is now on a CGEM mount, I began my EQ journey with an LXD75 prior to that(too small for the c11). I'm still a little torn about selling this, as I really did enjoy the "Push to" with this NGC MAX/SkySafari combo... it's simpler, lighter, and has that "old school vintage cool" factor. I want to do some astrophotgraphy is the only reason I went to a GoTo EQ mount, and I need the room on my shelves.

I'm doing astrophotography as well, do you find that the fork is a limiting factor in stability, or is it more of the lack of options for modern go-to and tracking?

@@TiBiAstro The tracking was never a problem. That fork has a well made, and much larger, gear in it and a great clock motor. I guess I just wanted the goto/computer control in an equatorial mount and I went with the most economical path that got me that. I am still a little torn as to whether I made steps forward or not :) I prefer the forks from the "chasing the eyepiece around" perspective for sure. If I could have come up with a wedge mounted, fork style, goto, mount for the same money, I would have preferred that. (Pros will argue the EQ is "better"..and they may be right... But I do like the fork style better) I am under them impression I can hang a lot more gear off an EQ without mechanical interference as well.

you can always buy a garden tractor but the way things are going with big gov banning everything, you'll never get the chance to buy more "protective devices".

@@JT-cf5ol your absolutely right I finally ended up finding a nice garden tractor had enough money saved and bought it and it’s a John Deere

It's an Aquatic Life Marine WiFi. Take a look at my description, it spells out everything in there. I'll post an updated video soon... Lots of changes and I'm now at the tail end of the "ugly stage" (I hope!!!)

I'd add..the vendor support on that light has been phenomenal... No problems with the light, I asked a TON of questions and the guy was quick getting back to me, and very knowledgeable.

@@pbaddict1a thankyou so much!

I had to get creative with the lid... I glued it together (epoxy, zip ties) so it was one piece, and then cut the middle out of it, so there is a front cover and back cover now. Works very well, but was a lot of tedium to get it right.

These were GForce Hydraulics, 11429 and 11427 Bore x Stroke(inch), Shaft Diam, Retracted, Extended 3X10 ,1 1/4, 20 1/4, 30 1/4 3X8, 1 1/4 , 18 1/4, 26 1/4

3x8 and 3x10

They were removable. You could take them off and put them on at will...

I had replaced the engine with a low hour P220G... the oe engine had a lot of hours, low compression in one bank, and a worn ball plate on the governor. Sold the tractor about 3 years ago.

@@pbaddict1a Replaced with a 1025R?

@@mikeclement5383 1023e ...love it!!

@@pbaddict1a ANOTHER GOOD CHOICE!

Thanks!!

These were GForce Hydraulics, 11429 and 11427 I don't see where they are available now, but they are just common cylinders available anywhere. Check out Surplus Center.. I have great luck with them. Good luck with your build. I had a great time! Bore x Stroke(inch) Shaft Diam, Retracted- Center of Pins Extended- Center of Pins Ports Weight Rated PSI Max. Pressure 3X10 1 1/4 20 1/4 30 1/4 1/2" NPTF 28 2500 3850 3X8 1 1/4 18 1/4 26 1/4 1/2" NPTF 26 2500 3850

There's nice heavy wire hangers built in, they swing down and hold the ends up

@@pbaddict1a thanks, i just bought a used 1023e with no manual, you are a big help. Thank you!!!

@@dennisprusa2975 I'm glad it helped you!! I love this little tractor and the loader. Almost 2 years later, and I'm still super happy with my decision.

@@pbaddict1a Thanks again!!

Amazon.. search for DC12V 4inch Stroke Linear Actuator, and any momentary DPDT switch will work. Check out the GreenTractorTalk forum.. lots of info there.

Any Deere Dealer can sell you the JDQA for the loader... you would have to get a different bucket, or Modify your own.. IE weld the pins and hooks onto yours.

@@pbaddict1a ffs what a bunch of bullshit

Not really anything worth posting beyond this video. It's a pretty simple device.

Thank you for the compliment! I'd not be comfortable sharing my plans. While I did "do my own thing" for the bucket, bucket pivot, tractor mount, tooth bar, and lift cylinder arrangement, my frame is very similar to George of Buford's loader. His ideas for loader arm shape and hinge location gave me good ideas for starting my build. (My geometry on those two things is different and my lift cylinder arrangement is simpler, but his moving upper lift cylinder mount is definitely a better engineered solution for both stroke and force) As my frame is similar to theirs, I do think they should benefit or at least have the option to share or not. If George or his builder partner Pete are still making them, I am sure you'll find them and they'd probably help you out. I talked to them before I decided to make my own. Good people to be sure. They were just too busy to build me one at that time I needed it, and I LOVE building things, so I did my own thing based on their frame idea... You can see the Buford unit here: ruclips.net/video/t3uzhGWV6C0/видео.html (there is contact info at the end of the video)

THanks Man! This thing has been incredible and indispensable over the last couple of years.
