Description

My late step father made this probably 40 years ago. He ground the F5 mirror and made the tube assembly. It has been sitting around for ages and the primary mirror coating is in very bad shape. Can barely see your reflection. I plan to use on the moon as the loss of contrast will not effect that too much.



I mounted this and gave it first digital light last week just to try it out and actually outperformed my expectations.
