Astro mount for 100mm Canon lens (V1) - Vixen mount

Support for a Canon lens ( 100 mm Macro V1) for parallel mounting

on a telescope. In this case it is a Celestron Nextar Evolution. The attachment to the telescope is done by clamping on a dovetail type Vixen. The clamp of the objective can easily be adapted on another type of fixation by 2 screws chc M5.

In the upper half of the collar I created a recess for the protruding part where the AM/AF selector and focus distance are located (this is the only place where it will take printing supports). Once in place, you can't see the scale of the focusing distances but it doesn't matter in the astrophotographic use .

The screws receiving a clamping knob will be glued to the epoxy 2 components and all the nuts in their housing.

Good sky to all.

In the upper half collar I have created a recess so that the protruding part is housed there or there is the AM / AF selector and focusing distance (this is the only place where print media will be required ). Once in place, you can no longer see the scale of focusing distances, but this has no importance in astrophotographic use.

The screws receiving a tightening button will be glued to the 2-component epoxy as well as all the nuts in their housing.

Good heavens to all.
