Q. I have a drawing or thread dimensions for the part I need. Can you can make an adapter based on this information?
A. No. Our systems are largely automated and we only make adapters to connect actual devices for which we
have complete thread specifications on file.
We cannot make a part based solely on a customer supplied drawing or thread measurements.
We recommend first exploring the full list of devices available in Build-An-Adapter. Our database
is very comprehensive and encompasses the vast majority of astronomical devices, past and present.
Please be sure to also check the
other brand names category, and lastly the
generic devices category. Both categories are located at the end of the drop down menus on the
first page.
Our search tool can also be used to locate a particular device by typing one or two keywords in the
search field (at the top of every page on our site.) Do not enter a long description in the field
as this will most likely prevent the search engine from finding any match.
If your particular device happens not to be listed at all please
let us know and we will be
happy to add it to our database if connecting information is available and is within our
machining capacity.
But if none of these options would work we suggest contacting a general machine shop to make the part you need.
