Your old 1 1/4" Focuser

My 150mm x 750mm ebay telescope works reasonably well for beginner standards, but the sloppiness in the el cheapo fucuser puts the collimation out easily. I have scoured the astronomy shops on line, and have only found the 2" super duper 10:1 focusers at $129. Way too much overkill.

I figure there may be a few people out there who have upgraded their old perfectly good 1 1/4" focuser for the super duper 2" focuser, and the old one is lying abut gathering dust. Well here is your opportunity to send it to a good home.

If its for a larger OTA then tha's OK, i reckon i can pack it out with some washers and make it fit.

Will even be prepared to pay actual money.
