  1. Thanks for the welcomes and advice. The Lascaux article is an interesting read. I've already given the tripod and mount a clean, just to get things moving clearly. I may well post my progress on the telescope once I've read up on the subject.
  2. Hello, my name is Steve George. A few months ago my partner acquired a second hand Newtonian 130mm. I gather it's a basic beginners model in need of some TLC. A previous job was a technician maintaining stage and event lighting, and the basic mechanics of follow spotlights seems very similar to telescopes, so I intend to restore it to good working order. Took it out a few days ago and my first view of the moon has me hooked. I've signed on to look for advice on restoration and getting started on Astronomy. I'm also a qualified archaeologist so hoping to find ways to link the disciplines. Thanks Steve
