As a non-native speaker, what makes me wonder when someone writes: I have a pair of 15x70s. 🤪

I assembled it from separate components: ClickLock and UFC is connected with M54 extension tube, with respect to the backfocus I need.

Baader UFC + ClickLock for my purely visual setup. Looks so cool!

My ep collection for wide-field observing.

My Giro Ercole in B&W Outdoor case 4000, with ADM saddle and ADM rossette knob hand tool. I enjoy this setup a lot!

I received an unbelieveable response from astroshop.eu: TV dust caps are out of production by the manufacturer.

Hi, any idea where to buy original Televue reversible eyepiece cap? It seems it is not a common item even at TV dealers. (please do not advice that I should print it on a 3d printer)

Thanks for suggestions. Do you think Nagler 31 is a good fit for this scope?

I'm looking for a low power, wide field eyepiece for ES Comet Hunter, which is f4.8. I currently use Nagler 22T4 as a low power EP, but I would like to go wider. Nagler 26T5 would be my choice, but it is out of production and barely appears at used market. I haven't tried Nagler 31T5, which would give me exit pupil 6.4 mm which seems to be too much. Had anyone tried that combination?

It looks like you put the wood directly onto the concrete?

What about Omegon Nightstar 16x70? i have one....

Omegon 16x70 with Orion monster parallelogram mount. With Omegon SWA 15mm eyepieces provides 25x magnification. i believe the same binos are also available as Oberwerk 16x70. On CloudyNights there are some reviews.

What tripod are you using with your Ercole today?
