dob mount spares

[rockystar]

I've lost one of the plastic circles where you screw the scope into the mount (I've attached a photo of the bit). Does anyone know where i can get a spare?

Try the importer http://www.opticalvision.co.uk/, failing that AstroBoot http://www.astroboot.eu/AstroBoot  but they are under a rebuild....

i used these for my dob build, very quick delivery as well

Funnily enough both mine fell out the other night when I dismantled the scope in the cold. Luckily I found them. After that experience I glued them in place so it won't happen again!

I hope you manage to find replacements. Sorry I can't help with a source, but as Julian says, try Optical Vision, Astroboot or maybe FLO.

I don't know of anything specific but it should be possible to track down a replacement from outside the astro market, e.g. I came across something sort of similar here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5-Pieces-25mm-Mount-Hole-Plastic-Cable-Harness-Protector-Snap-Bushing-Plugs-/191601146120?hash=item2c9c517908:g:ttAAAOSwZJBX~LGZ

thanks all, some useful links there. I'm going to glue them in too - must have been while I was out with it.
