Travel equipment ??


Recommended Posts

Hi guys I don't know if this is in the right area but am new to all this and want to know where I can get a travel case for my telescope, I have a Skywatcher BK 1309 EQ2 Reflector, 130mm. 

Any help would be great thanks.

I don't know the exact length of your scope, but some of your options might be:

Pelican case, waterproof and pretty indistructable, but also pretty expensive! For example:

Aluminium Flight Case, this particular one might be too short, but for example:

Soft bags with some padding protection: again depending on size, you might look for cricket or similar sports bags, and also microphone stand bags. Just to give you an idea:

Or if you have any DIY skills (or know someone who has), make one yourself. For example:
