Thanks Brendon and Steve

I'm glad to read that you have found my work useful.

It occurred to me a few years back that there must be hundreds, if not thousands, of scopes sitting in boxes that haven't been used in years, and only pulled out of their boxes just two or three times because of the unrealistic expectations that people had, in not knowing how to handle their scope, not knowing about how seeing affects things, and impatience.

I've also rescued a couple of scopes from the Big Rubbish Council Cleanups, fixed them up, made a new dobbie mount for them and found new homes for these scopes that were on death row. I just couldn't bear the thought of just letting perfectly good scopes, however modest, be trashed. These little scopes have seen more use now than they ever did

Alex.
