350 mm F5 in 2012.
Borg helical focuser is very light enabling balance point to be low, keeping mirror box & rocker box short & light. This also enables the rocker to have very short, stiff sides keeping flexing to a minimum.
The Borg provides enough focusing movement for my range of eyepieces (19mm - 4mm).
Finder is made using old boots 8 X 40 binoculars and shows magnitude 8 stars easily in my moderate-light polluted sky.
From the album:
350mm (13.8 in.) F5 home-made single-pole telescope
