NEQ6 telescope mount tuning

This saturday I went with my NEQ6 mount to Astrosystems Holland. Both RA and DEC axes were removed, cleaned and readjusted. Especially the RA axis is running with almost no free-play. Before that I had a lot of free play on the RA.
Here is the removed RA wormwheel.
Right you see the NEQ6 wormwheel. Left is the much larger ALT-AT7 wormwheel.
Here's the NEQ6 with DEC axis removed.
