I've recently migrated the mirrors, spider, focuser and cell for my 16" F/4 to a new structure and I'm giving away the previous structural bits.
Pickup only from the Surry Hills (Sydney) area.
It's essentially a complete Dobstuff (http://dobstuff.com/parts.htm) kit, there may be a few screws and teflon missing, but I believe I've kept track of most everything :thumbsup:
The attached pictures show most of the kit in its current state, plus what it looked like assembled.
What's included:
- All wooden parts (OTA, rocker, groundboard)
- Focuser Board (Aluminium angle + cutout, drilled for Moonlight focuser)
- Aluminium struts, cut for 16" F/4, will need to be replaced if focal length is too dissimilar. Configured for Easy Transport option, see website.
- Finder bracket
- Bearing surfaces (FRP for azimuth, ebony star for altitude)
- Feet
- Misc bolts, washers, etc.
- Skate wheels for azimuth motion (no central bolt, uses hole to save weight and ease assmbley)
What's not included:
- Primary / Secondary Mirror :D (Should work with ~15-17")
- Mirror cell
- Spider
- Focuser
All this can be yours for the price of petrol! If you are looking for a project and have a 16" f4, or want to purchase an inexpensive(ish) GSO set, you could put together a pretty good scope. Message me with any questions.
