Celestron Polar Finder for CG-5 Advanced, CGEM, and Advanced VX Mount # 94224
Clearly a solid, nicely made product.
Has already helped me polar align with greater ease with my Celestron AVX! Once you get hang of it, can take only a minute. A great aid.

GSO SkyView Deluxe Alt-Az Mount
GSO voyager style mount
So far have only used it 3x for my 4” F6 refractor. Lightweight. Beats my Gibraltar since it has larger bearing surfaces and slow motion controls. No instructions, but any can be configured for arm on left or right, terrestrial arm up or Astro arm ...

GSO SkyView Deluxe Alt-Az Mount
Shaky
Couldn’t stabilize a 4 in refractor. Shakes ~5 sec making focusing a chore. No setting circle and only one slow motion flex cable that’s 8mm (you cannot purchase additional one because everyone else is making 6mm) Very expensive and low feature ...

Agena Telescope Tube Rings (Set of 2) - 3.5"
Great rings!
I've bought two sets of these over time to accommodate two older Celestron C80 telescopes. They fit perfectly, allowing me to use these scopes with a variety of mounts. Coupled with an 8" dovetail bar, they are perfect for my use.

Perfect upgrade
Now that I have upgraded my GEM mount, I needed a more secure way to hold my C8 OTA. This larger mounting rail was just the trick.

Another review mentioned that the screws were too long for Vixen PortaMount. I easily replaced them with hex screws from the hardware store and they work great. A good replacement for the original plastic handles from Vixen.
