I have a 114mm table top dobbie, 500mm focal length, like the one in the pic below. I made both dobbie mounts for the scope in the pic and the one I have now. The one I have now was my kids scope, but it can now do with a new home, and would be excellent for your daughter. I can add a couple of eyepieces and a red dot finder. I'd be happy to show you how to use it and give you & some pointers on things to look for in the night sky that are easy and interesting targets to start with.

Send me a PM if you are interested.

Alex.
