I asked if this tripod will work with a Celestron NexStar 114GT telescope? Reply was no, weight of the mount would exceed the capacity of the tripod. I’ve now only got the tube and a friend suggested using Antares or Sky Watcher Tube Rings? Thx null

Question

Telescope · Accepted Answer

If Tube Rings are used to hold the optical tube, make sure the dovetail bar that holds the tube rings is threaded to accept the Heavy-Duty Alt-azimuth's tripod's 1/4”-20 mounting bolt.
