Guest AstronomyShed Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'm testing the water with this one as a quattro 10CF is chanting my name like a siren, so I want to test the water with this. A brand new 200p OTA is £300 This would me MY 200P, it's fully flocked, even inside the focuser tube, it would come with a very nice neoprene dew/light shield, included would also be a custom made mirror cooling system, see here :- viewtopic.php?f=65&t=977 It's had the secondary slightly modded with the addition of a stainless and teflon washers as shown in one of my videos, it's had the secondary bolts replaced with stainless grubs and a stainless socket head for the middle bolt of secondary. It has a reinforcing ring fixed the the interior of the tube exactly opposite focuser for precice focuser centering. Before selling I would clean the primary and precisely collimate it. it's the star of the intro to all the shed videos and has been much pampered, I still have the original box I think in the loft. So, what would be a fair asking price? ***EDIT*** Forgot to mention, it has also been modded for rotation so it has a third ring, meaning no rings to loosen to rotate scope, again this was shown in one of my vids. Now mine has a Losmandy dovetail on it which will NOT be included but I will add a brand new vixen one which will be the same as the scope comes with when bought new.

Guest AstronomyShed Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 New vid is uploading as I type, it's the follow up to the quattro box opening review and goes through a full stripdown of the scope, all the tweaks and mods done to it and put back together again, only thing is it's an hour and a quarter long!
