Let's fix this!
Roller ball bearings are too fast lacking any
"stiction" for smooth start and stop motion. When
the rocker box rides on a small diameter footprint instead
of at the perimeter of the ground board is an invitation to
wobble. Finally, the mount's weight should transfer directly
into the ground board feet, not halfway to the azimuth bolt
- in order to eliminate flexure and possible vibration.
Our laminate rings, 1/4"
thick Teflon pads and positioning over
the feet are the right stuff!
Also see our Integrated EZ
manual setting circles, a great combination with this
motion fix.
