LOTSA tube rings

I just placed my order for the absolutely fantastic K-Astec 125mm rings with plates for the FSQ-106ED direct from Japan (which cost a bomb), SO...

1. Parallax 125mm rings. AS NEW. Typical Parallax metallic grey colour with grey soft felt. Hinging. Wide base and top for Losmandy plates (though Vixen will fit of course) These cost $125US WITHOUT postage. I will sell these for SOLD SOLD

2. Vixen 125mm rings. These do not hinge - you slide these onto the tube then tighten up (if fitted to a TSA-120 or FSQ, you'll need to remove the focuser first). Absolutely new, NEVER fitted. Typical Vixen white. These cost $110AUS new WITHOUT post, so I will do them for $90 WITH post

These fit any tube with 125mm diameter. Typical application is Takahashi TSA-120 or FSQ-106ED [NOTE: they will NOT it the FSQ-106N, as those have 114mm rings. See below]

3. Vixen 115mm rings. Re-felted with thicker felt so a tighter fit on 114mm tubes. Fitted with Takahashi green felt, and the rings were repainted Takahashi Fluorite blue. Fits any Tak with the 114mm tube (Old FC-100, TSA-102, FSQ-106N, as well as some Vixens). Sell for $65 posted.

4. SOLD - Chinese (unknown brand) 95mm rings. Typical William Optics STYLE (probably ARE WO OEM, not sold by them). Fits the Takahshi 95mm tubes: Sky 90, FSQ-85EDX, FS-78 and some others. Re-painted Takahashi Fluorite blue also, and also green felted. $55 posted - SOLD



Pictures - yes, they are TUBE rings. Unless you really NEED to see them, they are just TUBE RINGS
