Being in South Africa it is to expensive to import a polar mount from the UK.It is my intention to get my local welder to build me one.I have noted completed polar mounts on a satellite dealer web site ,however,I require the exact measurements for the welder to turn out a professional polar mount.Could a member possibly provide me with such measurements or direct me to a source where it can be obtained.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Post diameter, dish type, weight, tracking limits, actuator/motor type (and quantity).

Etc. etc.

It is 1.2m fibre glass dish driven by a 24" superjack actuator.Coverage from 20 degrees west to 70 degrees east.I have the polar mounts on the Satellite Superstore web site in mind.
