I use the es 14mm in my f5 fov is great and stars are sharp to the edge but I can't comment on the morphous because I haven't got any. Dave

I think there's some kind of pattern if you could see it all or maybe the tiler was drunk 🤪

I don't think Mrs Scutt would let me keep it in the kitchen, maybe she could hang pot's and pans from it🤔

Tripod and extension pillar thanks to Franklin just need a mount , a diagonal and a RACI and a can use my refractor at last

Hi CFarVT. Welcome to SGL

Did anyone get to see the meteor shower last night. I woke up at 3am to clear skies went to get the dob out of the shed but it hasn't cooled down and the secondary mirror was foged up and I didn't want to wake the wife and boys up by using the hair dryer on it. So I found myself just standing their looking up at the sky watching one after another shooting stars just amazing the high light was seeing 3 at once fingers crossed for more clear nights. Dave

Are the sheep Andy R neighbours.

Are you really going to bazooka that car.

Hi michelbechara. Sounds like you've got the same scope as me I'm using the 14mm es82 works very well . I couldn't afford the extra 300 euros to justify the extra 10% fov. Dave

Both 😁

Hi Paul . I wear these when I'm fishing 🎣 ment to keep warm down to -50 but I've only uesd them as low as -20 and they keep you warm but not as cheap as Mark's. Dave

Great report John. I've only seen the owl nebula with the UHC filter I've now got a O-III filter and it's ment to be clear tonight can't wait to get the dob out at last🤞. Dave

Hi and welcome to SGL

Great report kon. I still don't see any colour when I look at Orion but I've only seen it twice maybe (if) I get clear skies I'll keep checking. Dave

Hi Stephen. Welcome to SGL.

I've got a solid tube dob brought these from amazon keeps the spiders out good

Hi Owen. I can't help you with the make your buying but there was a thread on here that shows how big and heavy they are.

If you don't like the es82 11mm I'm still looking to buy one😁

Dam the two timing son of a baa

Or maybe this

Hi cajen2. I just checked x3 barlow and an 8mm ep would give you 281 magnification but your exit pupil would only be 0.53. Dave

Hi cajen2. Can I ask what ep's you would be using in the barlow. I have a ×2 barlow and using an 8.8mm ep would give me magnification of around 350 ,I still new myself and don't know much about your scope but would a x3 barlow be a bit over powering. Dave

I sent an ep from Ireland to a fellow SGL member in the UK and he had to pay way too much in customs and vat

Hi kon. I got this book before buying turn left at Orion it has helped me find alot of dso's with my dob hope it helps. Dave
