Found: Wobbletronic Reflector

[drmorbius]

Hi everyone,

I'm starting a DIY project to build a dob for Morbius Jr and I'm on the lookout for a small, cheapish reflector... Here's a chance to get rid of that embaressing Wobbletronic Deluxe you purchased before joining this forum and learning what you should have bought :D.

Thanks all

UPDATE: Thanks to everyone for their generous responses...

Cash convertors are a good source of 6omm wobbletronix bought during the Halley's comet frenzy.

Hi dr,
I've got a wobbletronic tripod (no eq or az mount) that you can have for postage.
Cheers
Doug:thumbsup:

Oops - I forgot to metion... what I'm really interested in is the OTA, which we plan to mount on a DIY dob platform.

Thanks Doug - that tripod is tempting (you never know when you might need one) but the missus is complaining about the storage space I'm using up now.:whistle:

No Worries dr,
It's up in my shed if you change your mind!
Cheers
Doug:thumbsup:

Randall....I know its not what you have asked for but if intersted I have a 3month old Skywatcher 70mm Fl 900mm Acho refractor OTA I have used once and and is still in its box...cost $130 yours for $50

Good luck with your search.

hey doc:

would you be interested in a 3 inch mirror and a small front surface mirror suitable as a secondary to go with it so you can make your own dob?

The optics are from surplus shed in the US-the mirror has some scratches -(as it came from surplus shed)-I never built the scope and probably wont..never touched except to open once to look at

heaps of people I know have built very satisfactory dobs with this mirror and it could be a fun project


say $15 including postage ?
