ASI1600 Utility Belt and Rotation pointer


paul

Recommended Posts

This is my first published design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5364095

 

It provides strong anchor points for Velcro cable tidies, strain relief for the front plate dew heater, and a pointer that indicates the rotation of the camera.

For strength I made the base 2.6mm which necessitates replacing the ZWO M3 screws with slightly longer M3x10 ones.

 

I will be working on a plate with 10-degree angle markings to attach to the focuser. For now, I use the focuser tension screw to indicate upright and the eyepiece lock screw to indicate 90-degree rotation.
