Takahashi offers alternative tube holders for some of its telescopes. The symmetrical cradle is a monobloc cradle to which has been added a flat base with holes and threads on the upper part. The aim is to offer a device for fixing accessories for use in parallel with the main optical tube (camera, guiding system, second optical tube, etc.).
Takahashi symetric cradles are made of cast aluminium. The finishing of each one is done manually. Felt parts ensure the protection of the optical tube.
