Navigable mount 2005
		Some times you can't find a guide star in your field of view. You want to have a guide scope who can move in all directions. This 'navigable' mount makes it possible. I used a motor of a car mirror. The telescope is made of a copier lens. The tube is made of rain pipe. The camera I use is the webcam Philips ToU Pro.

		Here you see all the parts for making the navigable guide telescope.

		The parts are painted.

		The mount and the telescope. The telescope is 70mm F300. The lens is taken of an old copier machine. You can use programs like Skeye or K3Ccdtools.

		For the communication between computer and the 'main mount' I use a relais interface made by TechnoPlus www.technoplus.nl
