i walked into 10kg of counterweight once. That took me out for a while.  

i have nightmares with posting IT kit and paperwork.  some of it is legal stuff. even when i do it special delivery i worry.  

im having to dual boot ur work laptops. The utilities we use for flashing only work on up to inc w7 32bit.  so im reating a cut down w7 32 boot for flashing and a w10 64 bit for normal.   

note i find it easiest to clear the drive and create the w7 boot first, then afterwards when fully built put w10 on it.  

i e. ow had my vixen sp102m since i was 19.  still going strong.  Love it. It was From Luton too!!

i realy enjoyed that! Thanks

I am glad I started this thread with the interest you are showing... and of course I don't mind anyone adding their images to it. The more the merrier.  

It was one of those rare morning where it was so pretty it almost made you late for work. 

This morning Bilborough Top services at York. C6:30 am.  -2c.  Bit foggy.

Here's my entry, the Moon and Venus taken with a 135mm lens and Ha filter.

For added StuPoddity, I also used a Bahtinov mask

Thats left- right flipped too!

Well.  I went to santa and collected my nify fifty yesterday, so.... appologies for the weather folks!

Nothing yet as i was apparently out.... grrrr

eventually when i can get into town a nifty fifty for the 450D

Ive been wondering how this was going.

Nice to see the project continue.  I take it there will be a fan somewhere to ventilate all that glass? Otherwise the coll down could take days!

Keep up the good work! 8-)

I had one much like that on wheels on alloy angle. It covered my old 8" fullerscope mk3. Still one of the best scopes i ever had (It had an A mirror, i bought the scope secondhand for £300 when i was 19, so 37 years ago).

I have to say that my auto focus has been worth its wait in gold. Battery life is good. If your using it in the very cold use a duracell pp9.

I have to unattach the washing line too.i have nearly hung myself on it twice

Also its handy if its preplanned to fill the kettle beforehand, and put some coffee etc(n dried milk) in a cup. U don't want to a) wake the other half dropping a cup and get blinded by the fridge light coming on. Silly i know but it does save your eyesight whilst u warm up.

Just a quick note to say that I ordered my 880, flashed, from Morgans on Sunday and it arrived yesterday. 8-)

Also a note to say cheers re all the advise on this thread... is it a record?

Welcome.

Given temperatures around here at Xmas thermals are probably a must !

I was trying to show some friends at Hambleton some skies at Xmas but -13 put em off.
