as the title says:
Skywatcher 8" F4 Quattro carbon fibre newt.
In good nick, push screws on primary cell have been removed and uprated springs added for easier collimation.
The Skywatcher finderscope has been modified to use as a guidescope.
The Skywatcher F$ GPU coma corrector has mint optics, but scratches along the bottom of the tube - see pic. These happened before I realised that inside the focuser was a tiny rivet that scratched the tube of the coma corrector. I have since carefully filed this down.
Price reduced to $600 the lot. Pick up only from Geelong West as I no longer have the packing.
Pics to follow...
Reason for selling? Got a nice new 100mm Esprit refractor :-)
Pic taken with it here:
