4" Celestron (offered as a loaner to the Prescott, AZ, Astronomy Club
10" f/5.6 Homemade Dobsonian (not by me) This telescope, or its parts, are for sale.
90MM Meade ETX-90/EC (a Prescott Astronomy Club telescope in my charge)
This is my newest family member. It started with a 12" Meade Lightbridge primary mirror with cell. I stuck it in a Sonotube, added a 4-vane curved spider, a JMI 2" Crayford NGF focuser, and mounted it on a Tech2000 pier with Giro drive. I also have the Tech2000 Guide Pump for later use.
I've attempted to capture a few photos with the Dobson and the Meade using my Canon PowerShot S50. For a first-timer with no skills, they are a huge success in my book.
