Can t cope with the OCD either so I totally get that..
to clarify the first Divorce was not astro spend related, her reasoning was now way as plausible, or acceptable as that.. I mean he wasn't even an astronomer so I have no idea what she was thinking TBH...
Sounds like a wanted Add, but good luck with the search if you go for one of those lovely green ones..

A Vixen green half pillar would solve this I think, if i can find one.
You'd laugh then cry if you knew how much mine cost me, and I'd probably end up divorced again if my wife found that out too.... but I needed it so it was worth it as a loss leader! They don't come up often..

Tried something a bit different tonight, seeing if I catch the illuminated clouds scuttling past the moon, not easy to do without over exposing or not picking up the clouds..
All processed on the phone, couple of overlayed images.. tweaked on the phone too..
What do we think?
Canon 750d, 70-300 nanoUSM at 70mm iso200 f20, 8secs..

I think we have a habit of over complicating things.. either it will go SN or it won't in my life time, that's two options, therefore I make it 50/50... not bad odds tbh.. 😂😉

I guess that's a potential issue with sliding dew shields although my TMB/LZOS 130 has a flocked sliding affair. I believe it was flocked when made though so the flocking material thickness has obviously been allowed for in the machining of the sliding mechanism.
Never even considered this to be a potential issue, still goes to show that it's a well engineered bit of refractor, the papers not exactly thick.. 1mm maybe!

Oh yes, that’s my style.
Then sit thinking, why the ****@@%%+&(&5+5=5(=5( did I just do that
And then the lens cell starts to unscrew stuck up in the dew shield... you have to tell yourself not to panic although the situation is getting away from you, rapid!
All free now though... and unflocked!

Great job! - Can I ask where you source your timber from?
Thanks! I used Clive walker timber in Hunslet, Leeds.. local to my work, thought it was a decent price for small quantity.

Lol... still quicker than most of my DIY... speaking of which I've got half an observing chair somewhere round here!
