How to Design EQ Platform Build Series E05 Final Design

This Video is episode 5 from the EQ design and Build series.

This tutorial is made using Onshape CAD software. Onshape is a cloud based software, you can access your files anywhere on the go.
I have used the free version of Onshape, although a paid version is available for commercial use.
In This Episode I have explained the Final Design loop with Inputs collected from Previous Episodes.

In Episode 06 we will look at how I had fabricated by EQ platform that was made for 24deg North latitude.

If you own a non motorized or non GoTo Dobsonian telescope then you might have faced the hassle of adjusting the telescope again and again,
as the target slips away from the sight, breaking your back. Don't break your back, make a equatorial platform for yourself and live in peace
and also venture into initial level of astrophotography with a tracked long exposure photo, off course it will not be as crisp as an German equatorial mount with PHD2 guiding, but you get the point.
