Nice one! Great scope - congrats

Oh - quick tip - don't remove the tapes from the bottom end of the trusses - they're to help hold collimation.

Thats a beast! Make sure you post your first light experiences on here (which may be a while yet if the weather forecast for the next week is anything to go by).

justify it to the wife by saying it cost half the amount you actually paid for it, and if i ever sell it my love i`ll get all my money back, seems to work with my wife, just bought a megrez 72 in a case, she noticed the case, asked how much, i told her it was empty, she called me a liar and went shopping with her mother, so i think i got away with it !

Don't worry about the wife. The ear bashing will be worth it. Or as above, just say it cost a lot less than it did - she wont have a clue.

^^ haha sounds like me although I have yet to sneak the 10 inch dob into the house yet....

Very nice bit of kit

I'm sure once your partner looks through it they will realize how worthwhile the expense is.

"It only cost the same as a pair of shoes and a handbag dear".

......

"What you spent a thousand pounds on that!"

A bit late for justifying it? Lol
