By way of apology to the original poster for diverting onto ancient units of measurement, I came across these extracts from the 1980's Fullerscopes catalogue which are relevant:

No need to apologise, was quite amusing.

How interesting, little did I realise I had such a high quality primary mirror and a bit of history as well.

I'd be interested if Steve can shed some more light on it. I have emailed him.

Hello,

I have inherited a telescope and Id like some help in identifying the spectifications of it. The mirror has the following written on it.
The Base is a Fullerscope MKIII as far as I can tell. there is no motors on in any more the but gears are still attached. so I am hoping to mount some stepper motors to it again.

"4583A"
"FL 1295mm 51.0"
"Made in England"

I am relatively new to this field so any comments would be appreciated.
