Sky-Watcher Pillar for HEQ5 and EQ5: Mobile Stability for Your Fixed Location
This column replaces the tripod stand under your EQ5, HEQ5, or EQ3-2 mount. The 100mm diameter steel column on three locking arms holds Newtonians, Schmidt-Cassegrains, and refractors steady, even at higher magnifications. With no splayed legs, long tubes can rotate freely without hitting anything.
The three swivel casters make the pier movable across the patio or observatory floor; the adjustment screws then allow you to lock it in place and make it perfectly level. Ideal for anyone setting up a semi-permanent location in their garden or garden shed.
