HI Lunar and welcome.

I have a 12" dob with a r/a 8x50 finder and Rigel quick finder. Very easy and comfortable to use. I have toyed with the idea of mounting a green laser also, but I find the Rigel works better in my light polluted sky than my 5mA green laser.

The only thing I need to add to this ensemble, for the sake of comfort, is a Denver type observing chair (there are instructions for making one of these on this website). This is to keep the eyepiece at a comfortable height, and keep the back breaking to a minimum.

Cheers
