Default Question about Antares dobsonians,

Thank you very much for these references.
I found them very helpful.
John.



If you do buy a Dobsonian, get the seller to demonstrate fitting a 2"
eyepiece, even if you are buying it for starters with 1 1/4" eyepieces. I
bought something similar to what's described, and needed a special sleeve
machining because the supplied rack & pinion focuser couldn't deal with a
genuine 2" eyepiece.
