Esprit focuser is a good one - never seen one fitted to anything else before though! Well done Brian.

Just watch the little locking lever underneath mate - it unscrews from the spindle too easily. I put permanent loctite on mine.

[brian nordstrom]

:thanx: Yes the origonal owner lost the first one in the grass and loctite'd this second one from Tasco in place before I got it . Lesson learned .

Yes they are a nice R&P focuser and this one was off the 120 f7 Esprit .

Meru does a brilliant job with the printing! Got a few bahtinov masks and had a focuser bracket made. Must get another bahtinov mask made before I forget again.

+ 1 on that .

Just to confirm, the part we're talking about is an adapter to attach an Esprit focuser to your achro? That's impressive.

[brian nordstrom]

:thumbsup: Yes thats the one Morton, I am impressed as well

Mate, thanks so much for the great feedback! Didn't see this post to now - always a pleasure to deal yourself (and of course Colin, we still need to plan that catch up). Looks very good and happy to hear it worked the first time :D

Well if you didn't go off and get married then you'd have more spare time ;)

He should have more spare time...someone to do the laundry, house work, prepare meals, mow the lawn, wash the car....heck he should be able to give up work.

I will need a mask soon.

This is so wonderful to see great effort Meru.

:thumbsup: Alex , we need to support people like Meru here , his prices are very good and the product is as expected , if the dimensions are supplied right , that is a very good finished product that in my case would have been a bast%$d to machine on a lathe .

Hi Brian
I could not agree more.
I feel his service will be invaluable to me.as I put together a new set up.
My daughter has a project which if we can develop it further will keep him occupied for quiet a while.

:thumbsup: Thanks Alex and good luck on your daughter's venture .

I just think it's great that people like Meru and others here ( Light box's come to mind , large beautiful Dobs , smaller Dob bases and other things have impressed me no end ) have got up off their backsides and are doing something productive that helps eveyone here ,,,
awsome guys :D.

Brian.

:lol::lol::lol::lol: I think I have even have less spare time now, although seems like Alex is living the dream haha. Appreciate the kind words guys and yea it was frustrating having to fork out $$$$ for basic things (or worse not even selling to us because we have (?) drop bears). Look forward to any and all project!
