Yes John, don't want to have to report you to the mods for encouraging folk to get into debt :)

I believe it's called 'scopeaholic baiting' John, though perfectly allowable in the CoC obviously. ??

I'm 100% confident in the ability of everyone on this forum to excercise restraint and common sense, as we always do. :lol:

 

 

 

That reminds me, don't let Derek see this :lol:

I think he'll let me off saying this? ;)

I think you might have to exercise some restraint for a day or two yet ?. I am seriously tempted, by the Pentax but may get my sensible head on tomorrow. Or maybe not. Probably not actually. ?

John, I evidently over-estimated your ability to judge others characters!! ??

So will you be bidding on this lovely Pentax ? its way out of my price range and i feel my 150 pro Mak will about match it on solar system, but i have to admit to being rather tempted to do my savings some serious harm

Lovely gaggle of francs set off nicely by the ship's funnel in the foreground:-)...(only joking, looks like a 6" or 8" F8 Newt?

Can we have some more info?

Dave

The Newt is a 1970 8" F/8.5 Cave. I redid the whole scope and repainted it.  The other scopes are early 90's Vixen 80 and 102mm and a new AT130 EDT on a G-11.  The Cave beats them all.

Lovely collection:-)

Thanks.  Here is a Tak FS-78 i just got.  Had one years ago and will make a great grab and go for the SP mount.  I don't have it mounted right in the pic as this is just a temp way to mount it until i get the right doevtail.

Oh my word that Tak is beautiful!

There was an unboxing thread for the Tak 78 last year and it really planted the seed for owning one some day :)

Edit: it was the 76 not the 78, still it made me want a Tak!

My Takahashi FC76D before and after an all-nighter at the AstroFarm B&B st Confolens.  A lovely warm evening turned into one of those cold, crisp nights where the dew froze on the dew shield!
