Dew cover

Hi Im looking for a dew lens for my nexstar slt 5" 127mm mac cant seem to find one that fits

It's a problem Brad. I have the 150 Mak and have designed an Aluminium one that I will have a local Engineering firm make for me. Since I have to go that way I may as well make it 'beautiful' as well as having lock screws to hold it.
I see people use neoprene basically just rolled and held on with elastic or Velcro, but it isn't attractive, and I suppose it doesn't have to be to do the job.
Just thought I may as well make an effort if I am going to make it myself.
Good luck with you search. I will be interested in the replies you get.

Hey mate.

I have the same OTA as you.

I found one that fits which I got from Bintel.

When you wrap the dew shield around there is a bit of overlapping but the Velcro allows both ends to meet and fit nicely!
