Getting Pier adapters ready for mounting onto the Piers

In this video I am putting the finishing touches to my pier adapters as tomorrow the concrete slab is booked to be poured and then I will be setting up the piers for my mounts and scopes.
When the weather is bad (and today is a bad wet one) this is the kind of thing I do. Its just mainly a cosmetic job but for me worth it as I want my set up to look the best it can, after all it costs a lot of money.

ProLogik balance meter and tuning tool
https://www.prologik-astro.com/

The meter is of a high quality and works really well. Not only is it great for helping to find perfect balance in stiff mounts but it is a fantastic aid to fine tuning your mount for the best guiding. It will assist you in adjusting your worm drive/gear mesh to the optimum setting and giving you great smooth tracking and excellent guiding numbers.
