Big Light Bucket arrived yesterday

[jarbi]

Hi Everyone,

After two weeks of waiting my Lightbridge 16" Dobson has arrived. I couldn't wait to pack it out yesterday evening, and made some pictures also. It IS a giant ! I have now all drawings to make the suggested mods, thanks again to all SGL members who were giving me good advise !

This weekend will be than filled, I hope I can finish the most important stuff by sunday. I am planning to put some handles on it for better transport and for easier movement, and also two removable wheels when I need to take it out to the garden.

It looks like I will have no chance for a first light this weekend, that will be a separate post .

cheers,

Janos
