OK, have taken the plunge and got a new chrome barrel for my diagonal and an adapter for the baffle tube thread. Well, one of the two, they did not have the adapter in Melbourne so they are getting one sent to me from another store. There is one frustration ticked off the list.
Now to dig into focussers. I am a bit tempted by the feathertouch upgrade if I can find one in Asutralia. It probably makes more sense for me than to go strapping a crayford to it, the scope is pretty well exclusively used visually and on those nights where high power planetary viewing is possible a low speed focusser to really snap it in would be a very handy thing.
I am just a little reluctant to spend too much on the scope itself as I am still considering remounting the scope or replacing it completely. Problem with remounting it is I end up with a CPC mount and tripod that would be pretty well worthless at the end of it all.
