    Bit disrespectful but if they make a 13 will they purge it with CO2?

    You can get heavier olflex cables, bit expensive though: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAPP-KABEL-OLFLEX-HEAT-180-SiHF-0046020-SILICONE-CABLE-3-CORE-X-2-5mm/221526507149?hash=item3394023e8d:m:mouNRKo1J6Dgj3i14tjYapQ

    Like the phone holder, whole thing is rather tidy. I think i will try similar, think a red anodised item for push bike handlebars would do it

    Dundee. The comparisons could be interesting.

    Bortle 2 an hour away would be Glen Clova for me, need a car license before i can take some gear there or over to the NW. Would be something to behold when it was actually dark later in the year, compared to the limitations of being in town

    A 3.5 Pentax XW courtesy of Aunt Flo, mini set is now complete: 3.5 to 10 Might take it out of the box once i have been fed and watered.

    One mount, one scope, one eyepiece. Few more to come possibly. The imagers are not going to like the last instalment: If you had only one wire 😂 At the moment a Altair Sabre with a modded AZ8 riser as its still new to me.

    Have a search for local machine shops, the smaller ones usually do this sort of thing.

    It looks very nice, will read with interest how you get on with it. I did ask for the MCC sticker inside the box once, it made no difference

    Ok a bit of an exaggeration, just checked the invoice my shipping was £25

    Orion Optics(Uk) can make rolled tube rings and give you radius blocks for them, i had a pair made for a C9.25 Just be prepared to wait on them being made and if you can collect them. As there postage is ridiculous - more than the rings themselves

    Get them Powder coated

    A replacement draw tube and bearings for my moonlight focuser, good man is Ron, very helpful and easy to deal with. Just a shame how postage and customs nonsense make $ = £ when it comes to stuff direct from the US

    Take a look at the Altair Astro pier adaptor, does a few mounts in one

    So Altair are buying scopes and having them branded for there own make as far as i can tell. Yet they do not know the specifications of what they are buying and then selling themselves. Some strong smelling excrement here i think. The more i read in this thread the more i am put off either Altair or TS

    I do believe i sold you this, good to hear you like it. I did spend a bit of time one day faffing about with the focuser adjusting it, it can go tighter yet I think
