1, EQ6 Lid design:

Introduction:

I need a new lid to the EQ6 mount where I can place the new AstroEQ driver box. If it later will be a permanent solution I can 3D-print a new enclosure to it and place it inside the EQ6 mount.


The AstroEQ box:

3D CAD: EQ6 Pad

The AstroEQ box placed on top of the lid to the EQ6 mount. I need some holes for the cables and don't want to drill holes in the original lid. It's easy to 3D-print a new lid for that purpose.


Dimensions of the lid:

3D CAD: EQ6 Lid

I use the same dimension as the original lid, note that it's not symmetrical.


3D CAD: EQ6 Lid

It's padded to 4 mm thickness and has rounded edges.
