Does anyone know if Astro Parts UK are still in business? both number of the website are unobtainable plus no replies to emails. 

Are there any other manufacturers of custom adapters in the UK that anyone knows of ?

 

thanks

Is this them? If so website seems OK.

Sorry, thought you said the website was not available. Must read closer next time!

Obvious thoughts could be they are just on holiday at the moment perhaps?

I am sure FLO may be able to guide you as they seem to use someone to manufacture their own "bits".

If you are still having problems by the time Kelling comes around, PM me your details as I normally see Brian (Astroparts) at Kelling. 

N.B. I only return from holiday 3 days before Kelling so might not reply to messages whilst away.

+1 one for John. He did a custom adapter block for me which was perfect. Also good communication and easy to deal with.

However I think the correct email address is: john@jtechdesign.co.uk

Thanks all, I will give John a try, thanks for the link.

 

Thanks for all your help

Thanks Dave. I’ll note that down for any future use if required!

I believe that Brian Brooks has unfortunately passed away.

Bern at Modern Astronomy has a man that does.... I've had an adapter made through Bern and it was very quick and reasonably priced ??

I'm really sorry to hear this Owen,  Brian has made various adapters and a number of different machined parts for me over the years, he always seemed to understand exactly what I needed even from my poor drawings.   Sad news indeed.

Oh No!!

Does any-one know if this is definite?

Very nice man I did some business with him from time to time.
