Need info on machinery

Thanks Guys for ALL your help. I have collected your suggestions, and will look for the best route. More ideas are always welcome.
For James and Tony, I am a "Machinest One" and have the papers too prove it grin . I refused to do any sloppy work, and cutting threads on a Layth, is a piece of cake. 8)

Most of the Machine Shops around here, have closed up, or in the process. I rather do the work on my own, than have people, pull the wool over my head with cost and shoddy work.

For David, as for Pluto, each his own. If you ask a person what color is the Sky, you would say Blue, and I would say, what shade of Blue ? I want let 400 people out of 10,000 tell me that Pluto isn't a Planet.... wink

Again, thankyou guys for your help, and I do learn alot from you as time goes.

Thanks Guys for All your help. I have taken notes, and will decide what I will purchase. I have a 16 inch Meade Starfinder Dob, that I did some up-grades like change the focuser, to a New JMI Event Horizon 2..
It has an 1 1/2 adapter. The focuser, is a work of beauty and function.
Again, thankyou....
Be Well,
