If not, have a look at this: http://www.teleskop- service.de/Antares/MontierungZub/montzub.htm#DoppelbefGP Or http://makeashorterlink.com/?V49F2131C if that one wraps badly for you. -- Jim Easterbrook http://astro.jim-easterbrook.me.uk/ N51.36 W0.25 |

are definately going to be there on friday(blean church) i will drop the stuff over cloud or not! No nothing, did you take out the 'not this' bit ?. Great see you there, Alan sent this; Dovetail plate to my specification from Astroparts (Brian Brooks). He gets it hard black anodised as part of the price. Total was £20 + shipping. I had an extra long one 300mm long jc |

Thanks for those bits Robert, would you like a laser collimator in exchange
? The "Barlow thing" is a Magni Max, and gives X1.6, I didn't see it until I got home so I was using it with the 10mm on Mars and didn't know ;-0, not knowing I then whacked it in my Barlow (so giving X490) and was amazed at the quality of the image, thinking "Whoa, this good for a 10mm". The 25mm gives a slightly wider field than mine so that's one for my box. The filters will go inside my top tube below the focuser where I can get at them without disturbing focus :-) The finder will be fitted by tonight, much better than the 50mm bino objective pushed into a cut down tasco refractor that I'm using at present. jc |
