celestron collimation tool for newtonians 3d models

A direct-bolt Vixen dovetail bar for a de-forked Celestron Celestar C8. It's broken into three pieces so that it can be printed on smaller beds. Use two threated rods to hold it together and give support. I have also included an adapter incase you...

This is an adapter to fit on the Celestron 6SE (on the screws on the left side) to hold the SVBony SV165 Guide scope.

This is a remix of the Dew Protection cap for Celestron Edge HD 8" telescope. I used the dew cap as a template for the locking design for this print. It fits into the C8 dust cap locks and fits snugly. I made this specifically so I could add a solar...

This adapter enables you to utilize a low-cost Celestron 6x30 LER finder as a polar scope for an EM-1S mount (it may also work with other Takahashi mounts). It's not meant to replace the exceptional Takahashi polar scope, but rather serves as a...

I currently have mine attached to an Arduino Nano with two old limit switches for forward/reverse buttons, but I plan on using this with OnStep later. I will post my schematic and code in the future. ... PS - it's a bit of an odd shape, so you'll need...

ASCOM Focuser mount for Celestron CGE1400 telescope. MyFocuserPro2 plans were created by Robert Brown, available at SourceForge.net. The focuser design shines, but leaves mounting to the builder's discretion. This version uses a Nema 14 stepper motor...

This is a mount and base conversion for an older Celestron Nexstar Mount. It was specifically designed for the Nexstar 80GTL, but would likely work with other models. One set of parts converts the clamshell clamp to a Vixen dovetail clamp; the other...

Adjust the knob to fit snugly over the rubber focus mechanism on your Celestron C5 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope. ...The 40-millimeter diameter of this superior focuser knob enhances accuracy when manually adjusting focus.

To successfully attach a camera to a Celestron AVX mount, exercise extreme caution due to the brittle nature of the Kodak bolt in PLA. ...This material may not withstand the weight of a heavy camera.

However, I already had a multi-reticle holographic sight and decided to create a NATO adapter for my scopes instead. These brackets are not quick-release, but I rarely transport my scopes and prefer their low-profile design and solid connection. I...

For the threads I used a thread guage, and for the gears I took pictures, zoomed in and found angles by drawing lines and measuring.. Most of what I learned re: gears&fusion360 was from Antalz on youtube, so many thanks to that guy: ...

The critical specifications for this project are: thread diameter 9mm, step 1.5mm \nModified version of http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:193647\nDesigned with Customizer! ...http://www.thingiverse.com/apps/customizer/run?thing_id=193647\n\n ...

Celestron was kind enough to give this PEC disk design out so people can 3D print their own if they break. ...&nbsp;I made one STL without the bump on the disk so it is easier to print.</p><p>I HIGHLY recommend a .25 nozzle.</p>

Replace the original knob on your Celestron SCT with this new one by slipping it over the rubber focuser. This knob fits mine perfectly without any adjustments, but can be customized to fit a different size if needed. ...The 70mm diameter of this...

This is a mount I designed to hold the Celestron Hand Controller on my 4" riser mount. I printed 3 and stuck them on with double-sided tape and lashed them with tie wraps. So much nicer than having the controller dangling. ...I printed with...

Spacer to hold the mirror lock knobs of a Celestron EdgeHD in the open/unlocked position. Prevents accidentally locking the mirror and damaging the focus mechanism, especially when using a focus motor. The spacer will keep the mirror lock knobs...

Human: RA and DEC stepper motor mounts for a Celestron 130EQ telescope. *** These are an early prototype, use with caution *** *** CAUTION - To use these you either need a lathe or be prepared to make permanent changes to your telescope mount. *** ...

So, I purchased a second-hand Celestron NexStar 4E - it's in pretty good condition, but lacks the spreader that firms up the tripod legs - so I decided to build one myself. My 3D Printer has a build area of 100 mm x 100 mm, so I had to design and...

simple knobs to assemble the vintage tripod without tools

A collimation 1.25" eyepiece with tiny hole inside. ...This hole lets you collimate primary and secondary mirrors in Newtonian telescopes.

This setup enables using Robert Brown's MyFocuser on SourceForge, a valuable tool for controlling focus in various settings. Its applications include observatory use, educational events where manual focus adjustments are restricted, and any other...

AVX Leg mount for USB Hub

... into your camera body. Additional bolts are necessary for secure attachment to an equatorial mount. Ideal when pairing with a drive motor for precise tracking of the stars and capturing wide field shots of the night sky without star trails forming.

I printed first version shared by alpo16000, but it was just too long for my storage case, so I decided to make my own version. Installation is pretty straight forward, you will need just a few M3 bolts/nuts. I printed it on my Prusa MK3 with...

If you don't have the room on your OTA to mount a guide scope for some reason, and have a newer AVX with the dual saddle, this allows you to have a dovetail mount or blank plate on the unused side of your AVX mount. Added a larger double version for...

I built a vixen-style adapter for my C8 telescope, allowing me to position it directly on top of the scope and achieve perfect balance. With this setup, I no longer have to worry about the declination axis not balancing properly when the scope is...

Your choice for cables and connectors - I used RCA plugs and connectors to connect the control box to the motor and standard 12v connectors (that work with 12v power bricks) for the power connectors. ... Also, I use an external 3S LiPo battery for my...

Make sure that no support is in the groove - use painted support for the side latches only: (no other support material needed)         I've printed it in PETG on the smooth sheet. (in my opinion PETG sticks more on the smooth sheet). Only the cap...
