Hi all,

I'm now willing to split the lot.

* C8 OTA, with Losmandy Vixen style dovetail plate, Bob's knobs on secondary mirror, dovetail block for finder & rdf, 1.25" correct image 45° diagonal & standard 1.25" diagonal, 25mm and 9.7mm eyepieces, and Celestron dew shield - $950

* Celestron Wedge to suit standard C8's and the 8i and 8SE - $300

* 8i mount and heavy duty tripod (without OTA). The mount has the Vixen style dovetail block installed so OTA's up to a C8 in size can be accommodated. Comes with power cable, instructions, bullseye spirit level & GPS unit - $600
EDIT: I may also consider separating the mount and accessories from the tripod - any interest in tripod and mount separate from the other?

Or the whole lot for $1650.

Postage additional on split items and whole lot. Pick up welcome too.

I've added a couple more photos, one showing how the dovetail block modification now allows for a 2" diagonal to freely swing through the entire az/dec axis (2" diagonal and SCT adapter NOT included). Another pic shows an ED80 coupled to the mount (ED80 NOT included and is not for sale).

Thanks for looking,

Alex.
