opps!! i know the mount int up to much!! i bought ota only second hand.

Congratulations on that lovely scope and I like what you have made for mount,it's like a dobsonian setup. You have 40mm more than ive got!

unfortunately i had to sell it because the dob stand was not adequate enough for me to get the angle up, i could not afford a decent tripod eg eq2 , my head was on the floor!! really good optics on this scope with colour has well on jupiter belts!! really regret selling it! i will get another on when i have the money for decent tri pod.
