philjay Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Continuing my clearing out of the garage so I can possibly get a car in there as was the original intention for the garage if I remember rightly Ive got this Konus 114 newt going for nowt, just collect (wont post) Its a bit ropey on the outside with a few scratches but no dents. Its mucky and needs a clean, the primary may be OK once washed but I cant guarantee it. Complete with cradle. No eyepieces, no mount, no tripod no nothing except what you see. If no takers in the next 7 days its going in the bin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Type-R Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Phil I will take it, my 3 year old has been going on about wanting a telescope (yay, proud father) for the last 2 weeks. Also gives me yet another DIY project to occupy myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Eddy Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 If you want a mount for it Daz you can borrow my cg5 until you get a mount sorted for it, and just return it when you are done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brantuk Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Smashing gesture Phil - very nice offer And kudos to Eddy too for offering a mount loan. This is what EMS is all about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Type-R Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I agree Kim, I was loathed to get him a really cheap one, but didn't want to get him a semi expensive one either. Phil generous offer has answered both my issues, a decent scope for a 3 year old at zero outlay. And thanks for the offer Eddy, but I will say no, a 3 year old with proper kit is bound to end in disaster, and I couldn't afford to replace it if anything happened. I just love EMS.
