  1. Seems strange to me that any country (countries) deliberately make it difficult to buy from them ๐Ÿค”

    Hi there

    Hi and welcome to SGL.
  4. Looks like a good buy for the price.
  5. Congratulations on your good fortune, If as you say it has been packed away in itโ€™s box then with any luck it shouldnโ€™t have come to any harm and the mirror might just need the dust blown off.
  6. I find this company https://www.technobotsonline.com/ to be very reasonable and helpful.
  7. The Skywatcher Maks have a standard finder base which will take the 6 x 30 finder no problem.
  8. I have an ST120 mounted on an AZ5 Mount and do not have any problems. My OTA came with tube rings and a dovetail bar fitted and it slots into the AZ5 without needing to slide it in which makes it very easy.
  9. Hi Daf, welcome to SGL.
  10. Out of interest how easy or difficult was it to remove the lens ?
  11. Hi and welcome to SGL, your dark skies will add so much more pleasure to your star gazing.
  12. On the other hand I suppose these people donโ€™t end up with lots of specialist tools that you only use once because you donโ€™t want to cause any damage by botching the job. Not mentioning who ๐Ÿ™„
  13. I always thought the Skywatcher motor focuser was too slow which is why I used a higher rpm motor. If you are interested I bought a 4Tronix remote controller for the Skywatcher motor and it gives you 4 speeds, which when used with a 12v power supply gives a much better choice of speeds. They are on sale at FLO for about ยฃ36.00 and are well worth it IMO.
  14. I agree it would be nice if all the plugs were the same but I have both sizes on my gear ๐Ÿ™„
