Ok first I managed to post a photo but when I click on it it is to big for the screen I have to scroll up and down and sideways to view it,,,,,so what did I so wrong.

I have the set up at work on a dolly and when a customer comes in and is interested and especially if they have kids with them I ask if they want to have a look at the sun, so I wheel it out the back or front of the workshop depending it is morning or afternoon and let them have a look, and always they are amazed then they don't think of how much I just charged them for fixing their car.

Ok the scope on the left is a Orion 120/600 f5 with a JMI Event Horizon focuser and a Baader Herschel Wedge with a ES 8.8mm eyepiece for white light viewing.

The one on the right started life as a SkyWatcher 102/510 f5, I replaced the focuser with a Moonlite Focuser then got my mate to make an adapter to mount a Coronado SM90 filter and a BF15 filter diagonal on the other end with a ES 11mm eyepiece for Ha viewing.

Both are sitting on a SkyWatcher Alt-Az mount.

Most of the stuff I got from Steve at AstroShop.com

I am at home now and the scopes are at work so I will get some more photos on Monday if you can wait.
