Thanks Wavy, excellent points. In fact all the replys make good points. I never built the scope to get my money back on a sale, I needed a much lighter imaging newt than those available commerically - and it did (still does) that job very well.
Dobination is a possibility, but then I would be putting more money and time into building the base, and buyers would likely still prefer a shiny new GSO dob; it would make sense if I was reconfiguring it for my son's family down the track. I can't use it visually, my bad eyes are what drove me to imaging in the first place; and have sold off my good EPs.
It may ultimately go the way of some of Wavy's scopes, but for now I guess I will hang onto it and put it to more use. When I relocate/downsize my house then I will be forced to take action.
Thanks all.
