Hi Pat, glad everyone are safe! By the way if you remove the TC-40 rubber feet and use the ZWO spikes it will make the tripod more sturdy on those cement blocks! Try it..

[@HeavenlyBackyardAstronomy]

Oh, okay. I thought the spikes were for placing the mount over sod. I'll give it a try.

I was really worried about your garden and scopes. Thought I might see one tumbling into my backyard in Toronto! Glad everything is ok 👍

[@HeavenlyBackyardAstronomy]

All is fine. I just set-up the Orion EON 130mm refractor on the Skywater EQ6R-Pro mount in the location that gets that better view of the SSE Sky. And as soon as it was set, the clouds rolled in, but it is ready when the sky clears.
