Hi All, to Dave i think your probably right it's likely going to be the last scope! i will give the Crew Rang consideration but alas cost is likely to have the final say on that one! Re F5 / F6 Am i right in saying F5 is better for deep sky observing ?I have also read a few articles suggesting upgrading the primary mirror springs on the Revelation but that may be in regrades the 12 inch +.  Your advise in regards teeth is also sound i've bin a brushem twice a day man all my life i'm 67 in 19 days still gotem all so i figer i'm doing something right. Hope to here from you Best Wishes Lawrence.  To Damian i'v Bookmark East Midlands Stargazers i'll take it from there thanks for the invite mate.

Hi  All, how important is the cooling fan the Revelation 10 inch has one the Orion XT10 has not ? Is it possible to fit one after perches.
