Description

i needed a way to balance my hadley when i have my camera attached to it, so i designed this box that clips onto the ½" aluminum rods of the assembly for easy removal when not needed in visual astronomy the box was designed to fit 8 2oz. lead fishing weights, matching the total weight of the canon eos rebel t7 DSLR camera, however it could be stretched or squashed to accommodate more or less as needed for your individual use case the model needs no supports, and requires 4, 6-32 x ½" machine screws for the lid
AI Analysis: This is a black mechanical part designed as a counterweight for a Hadley telescope camera. It is used to balance the telescope's camera system and stabilize the setup during astrophotography sessions. The part features a rectangular shape with four screws for mounting and a curved top section that likely serves as a handle or attachment point.
