Steel Vs C/F? I have the AstroTech 8" f4 Imaging Newt, it is steel, and heavy too. It would definitely be "nicer" in C/F. But would it be better? Not sure.
The home-brew 10" F5 Newt I do have in a C/F tube, home-spun tube. Better? Again, not really sure, but t my mind t's better than the sono-tube it started out in.
If focus stability is the concern, then maybe. But I'd be looking to train my system and use temp compensation, and the appropriate software. I have the relevant bits for the temp-comp, for the F/T focusers I use, but have never used it. Too hard for me.
Might be an option for you though.
