The iOptron [b]Tri-Pier[/b] combines the strength and stableness of a pier with the levelling flexibility of a tripod. Aluminum pier and leg tops. Stainless steel leg extensions. The Tri-Pier feet has built-in vibration suspension pads.
The Tri-pier fits these iOptron mounts (may need extra mounting accessories):
