  1. Thank you I can store a 10 but probably not a 12.
  2. Hi With the telescopes shortly due to be in stock I'm having second thoughts about the 8" and going straight to the 10" for my first real telescope. Will be transported, but only a short distance and I'm in good health, so lifting isn't an issue. Is it worth swapping at this stage or stick with the 8"?
  3. Hi, can anyone tell me the years covered by Turn Left at Orion 5th edition? I had an earlier edition but that's completely out of date now.
  4. Hi Is this kit or similar available in the UK for a Stellalyra 8" and is it a worthwhile investment? I know this would be possibly easy enough to do with some experience in the scope but not seen anything similar in the UK. Your guidance is once again welcomed. https://www.highpointscientific.com/apertura-8-inch-dobsonian-performance-upgrade-kit?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=apertura-dob-upgrade-kit
  5. This is looking very interesting. Will be using with kids and so need to keep them hooked!
  6. Good point. I'm right under a military air-lane, don't want to go upsetting our friends from Fairford!
  7. Hi I am about to purchase a Dobsonian telescope. As a relative newbie what are your suggestions on either a laser pointer vs telrad to help me find the stars, etc, that I am looking for? Your thoughts and guidance is very welcome.
