Moving Telescope

Hi Ben,
Welcome to IceInSpace.

My first telescope was a 8" Dob.
When I used it at the start, I use to move it in two parts, base and tube.
But then I found it was easier just to carry the whole thing out as one.

At the moment, I have a 8" Skywatcher and I just grab the handles and carry out just like that, I find it doesn't do any harm.
I have just brought a 12" GoTo Skywatcher as well (now that, is a different story in moving.)

All the best with your new scope.

Michael
