Hallo, i am new here
my " Celobson " Telescope :
A Celestron SC C8, modified with Nasmyth focus 1,25 inches, red dot direction finder, finder scope 80 mm and dew shield with heating.
( dew shield and finder scope not visible in this picture)
Plus a short Dobsonian mount with digital encoder and optional electric drive in AZ or manually operated.
Later i build a pneumatic Hiss Drive platform with a ball pump from a blood pressure meter and a tire tube for the air camber.
This works well and is interesting for guests on the telescope because they can use it to track the scope themselves.
The "Celobson" is only used for visual observation. It`s the best telescope of all that i`ve built for myself.
I used google translator for this text.
