They had to kill a lot of Purple,green,orange & yellow spotted Leopards to make the cover for that dob base.

It's an environmental outrage. They are rare!!!!! :D

Nice to see the OTA covered in someones Board-Shorts though :rofl:

It's waaaayyyyy coool man!

What a great idea for a competition at IISAC 2007

"Pimp my scope" - prizes for the most red neon under OTA lighting and fluffy counter weights.

Gotta love it :lol:

Wonder if that improves the thermal properties, i.e cool down times or equilibrium.

I'm assuming they've flocked the internal tube with an equally fluffy material.:)
