Hiya guys I've made a 1 quarter sun mask But for the life of me I can't see how that Works Though I've not tried it yet.....lol I've a small reflecting telescope with a small sun filter in the middle and it seems to work fine So maybe I just need a little faith in what I've got Will keep you posted Regards sid

Hiya guys So I'm after making a larger solar filter So if anyone has some solar film fir sale 40cm x 40 m square I'd be interested in hearing from you Kind regards sid

Hiya guys Just a quick update on the leveling feet So I've added extras and this seem to work a treat The feet are detachable and go in little holders as can be seen in the photos Any questions!

Hiya mate First thing I'd do is download a good live stellarium app Then see what's available I hope this helps

Hiya mate In the later part of my previous message I am actually going to add ball joint feet About 6 to 8cm round With a rubber pad bonded to them Thanks for the input though

Hiya guys I've made some leveling feet for my skywatcher 350p FlexTube There 22mm threaded bar With extended nuts welded to 6mm angled steel that extends 15cm under tge turntable so it's proper solid And what a difference they've made My duel leveling bubble helps loads And takes minutes to setup See enclosed photos I'm going to add some 10cm 3mm steel feet to go with them Just thought I'd show other people For some input

Hiya guys Thanks for the info However I'm a little in the dark about offset terms etc Could someone give a technical drawing etc on the construction or explain exactly what I need Kind regards steve

Hiya guys I've got a Sky-Watcher 350p FlexTube And I'm after either making Or buying sun filter for the front of my scope The problem is its 400mm wide And I can't seem to find either the filter film Or a ready made filter that fits my scope Has anyone got some solar film 500mm wide Or equivalent Or information were to get some from Kind regards steve

Hiya I've made/making an illuminated compass If anyone is interested in buying one I have More bits to make another one ir two

Hello mate I don't suppose you just go though a step by step I kinda have an idea from the synscan booklet that came with the scope but there only seems to be about 3 pages Maybe I just need to take my time Can the gps setup be done in the daytime ?

Hiya I saw your post You need to download the windows Runtime dll file There probably old school They might even be the same ones Used on windows 98se/xp Usually found on graphics card software Like the old voodoo/Nvidia cards Hope this helps I might even have them backed up somewhere in my old driver's disc Kind regards steve

Hello to anyone who reads this and can hopefully help out My name is Stephen little I'm in Oxford uk And I'm trying to setup a gps mouse on my Sky-Watcher 350p FlexTube telescope. First off I'm an electronic mechanical engineer by trade so I understand the mechanics of a telescope And I had the 250p basic scope but sold it as it was hard to keep lined up on even the moon Anyway if got this new(used like new) Scope and I've loads of pictures and lots of toys but trying to sort the gps mouse out I've managed to mount the unit on the base and the handset recognizes it all OK but it's says cone error etc And I have the instructions fir the Scope and gps but if someone is willing to go though step by step It be awfully helpful I'm willing to give my cell number or email address to a helpful person Thanks to anyone who reads this It's a great Scope and I've made loads of mods and willing to help with repairs and modification advice Kind regards steve
