  1. My goodness, that was a bit of voodoo to raise this zombie from the dead!
  2. Now there's a good idea. I did struggle at school and I'm not really prepared to fork out for another set just for that. A reasonably priced zoom might be a good alternative. Thanks John.
  3. Fab, always worth keeping hold of these things!
  4. And possibly here's the original pdf. Lunar 100 object list and notes.pdf
  5. Maybe we'll just leave you to it then!? Only joking. Mine is more of a pipe dream list than a wish list! But I'm hoping that if I've been good I might get 12" dob when I retire.
  6. Full width at half maximum. Learn something new every day. Sorry, I can't be of any help to you though!
  7. Nope, for me, that would be the distance between pupils! Usually called the inter pupillary distance. 15mm would put your eyes rather close together!
  8. Mass and density? I don't think they are big enough. I haven't read about their original formation yet.
  9. Came here in the hope this was alcohol related! Merry Christmas, nearly.
  10. Great use of a Pi! You know, they like these sorts of projects for the magazine. You can use Etcher on windows too btw, I prefer it to Win32DiskImager too.
  11. Another blast from the past! I'd imagine it's probably easier, cheaper and quicker to find a mate with a 3d printer nowadays!
  12. It was the car I was thinking of!
  13. Sorry, I'm with the, "Yet more space junk!" brigade. Just because he can, doesn't mean he has to....
  14. Is the baffle still in the same position as the original photo? Can you hook it out with a long hooky thing?!
  15. I think my EPs well and truly fall into the mismatch collection! They're in the sig, but I'll take a pic with them all lined up if I get the chance.
  16. Definitely! If it's only a few weeks and used once and Widscreen Centre are anywhere near as excellent as FLO, there shouldn't be a problem.
  17. Just read your post about red lights at the star party and wanted to post a solution, but it has been locked.

    How about green light?

    I know you'd obviously still have to okay this with the organisers and the missus, but it could be a solution! :D

    Cheers

  18. Just saying, "Hello" again, as I've just rediscovered this section after the forum update!
  19. Have you tried it?! I'd make sure there's no way it can actually fall off whilst viewing. If you don't want to tape it to the body of your 'scope, then strapping it on somehow might be safer. The view will be fine. I made a filter for my 8" dob that effectively stopped it down to 2" and it worked a treat. I don't know about making multiple off axis filters though. Someone will be along eventually if they do, if not, why not try it and see?
  20. Maybe for his current run of bad weather in Bulgaria, but I'm not sure he can take the blame for the UK too!
  21. Nice one John! But in all fairness, 5 years has been quite a long time in the ep market.
  22. Wow! Both 'scope and storage! And just for clarity and to avoid any misunderstanding, I didn't make mine.
