Hi all.
I have a Celestron Astromaster 130 with goto mount (nexstar), but the motor has failed.
Looking for a cheap basic manual mount to use instead until we can save up for a new scope and mount, and this one will pass down to our 10 year old.
I live in Gatton QLD.
Thanks
Aaron

Just found a National Geographic 76/700 EQ Newtonian Reflector Telescope
for $100.00. Do you think this mount would hold my scope ok? I know its only a cheapie, but new mounts are so so expensive i'm better of buying a whole know scope and stand!:mad2:
