I'll take some pictures of what I do with this next time I'm out. I use half-inch wide strips of high quality velcro, cut in lengths of two inches. Like 15 or so, and tie all my cables neatly in one bunch so my mount won't catch on it, and I can manage the drag by feeding it thru the mount base sorta. Easier to explain via a picture or three. It works pretty well. Takes an additional 5 mins to setup but worth it. I have a lot of cables. Guider, focuser, camera, filter wheel, mount, etc...<br />
