Not yet but I have the current shower cap arrangement and may make some more or possibly some out of ply in due course. It's only apart for the time I am travelling so little chance of damage really. Not really needed for the top section.

Decided to convert my OOUK 16" f4 solid tube dob into a more manageable two bits.

Quite a simple process really albeit not made easier by the weak walled not round tubes they use.

Used a spare ring, chopped a finder shoe back plate up to make lugs and toggle clamps to join.

That made me cringe and I'm not easily squeamish. Brilliant job!!
