Replacement focuser for Celestron 150 (6in) Newtonian

[lesliejohn]

Due to illness my scope was stored under the stairs and has suffered some damage to the focuser ie minor , but unrepariable juddering to rack and pinon (just at the focus point). Have tried putting a shim in the slider but still not optimal.

Any ideas on a replacements (since I can't find a Celestron replacement) and / or repair shops in the UK.

Have a look at the revelation focuser sold at telescope house, they are good and well priced.
