Geoptik Quilt Cases

[Naemeth]

As some of you may know there's going to be some work being done on the loft space (bringing up lots of dust!) and I am looking into cases for all my scopes to protect them from the inevitable dust.

I've already got hard cases for a few, but do not have a case for the dob, the 80M or the 150P Newt (or the ST80, but that sits in an astro backpack surrounded by polystyrene chips). I found these:

Should they keep the dust out?

I bought one last week. Very nice quality and usual uber fast service from Telescope Service. IMHO they are the only way to go for Newtonian users.

Just to add it was the 8 inch version I bought for my OO VX8L. Even with a Telrad its a perfect fit.
