Someday I Will Own One Of These!

[Damo636]

Today I opened an account in our local Credit Union with the sole aim to start saving for one of these.....

Obsession Telescopes / Telescopes / 15" Classic

It won't be today or tomorrow thats for sure, but one day, she will be mine

They are something special aren't they?

If you think they look good wait until you use one.

This is the reason I'm building mine. Had the absolute pleasure of having a go on an 18" one once.

Remember thinking "this is how a scope should be, it just is so good it's not there", so good you can observe at powers manually you just cannot believe.

If mine, when finished is even half as good i'll die a happy man.

I actually want the biggest portable one, so maybe Sumerian or David Lukehurst 14 or 16"

Nice link Perry some really interesting points raised here.

Thanks for sharing. Certainly food for thought.
