I'm getting rid of nearly all my stuff, among it: a hand-made
barn-door style tracking mount. I thought someone here might want it.
Just line the pivot up with the celestial pole and give the knob a
full turn once a minute and you can do reasonably-long wide-field
exposures of the night sky. It's pretty much identical to this one:

If anyone wants it I can drop it off at 2169, otherwise I'll just toss it...
