  2. Afraid I jumped to the end at page 17, sort of glad I did... I wear glasses and find that the anti-scratch coating crazes terribly after 18-months or so. I ruined one pair trying to buff it off with a dremel, but for the pair I'm wearing now I used 'armor-etch' a flouride based glass etching cream. Obviously no use on glass, but it may be useful for removing mineralized/inorganic coatings on non-glass substrates. YMMV Neil

    First Try with DSLR
  5. You've pretty much sorted out the edges and in doing so left a lump in the middle? I know absolutely zilch about this but it seems like progress to me! The very regular shape of the 'hill' suggests to me that you must be working pretty symmetrically which is surely half the battle? This makes scraping a surface plate seem like child's play! Hang on in there.

    I hope this will document my telescope imaging skills improving over time!

    Managed to get six of the ten stars, although the two pairs are just elongated ovals.

  11. Ahem, that's a lizard... Why is that telescope so small? Because it is my newt. > I've already got my coat on...... I'll join you.
  12. Moderators - please delete if felt inappropriate, but I guess most people here already know what a Skywatcher 150PL looks like...

    Is it my imagination? Just left of centre dead on the equator.
  17. From the album: Jupiter

    Combination of two images at exactly the same scale, two 190 second runs a minute apart at different exposure and brightness. Sadly Eiuropa was occulted by Jupiter...
