6 inch dobs.
There seem to be two choices, Skywatcher and GSO. I am thinking of picking one up and making a new base from much lighter plywood. I have yet to see the GSO in any used classifieds. The GSO has a crayford style focusor, the Skywatcher has the agricultural rack and pinion. Would like to here from someone with experience with the GSO model regarding optical quality. It's a rare scope. The point i make about their focusors is because i use a binoviewer and the Skywatcher unit i think would struggle with one. I could replace it if you think the Skywatcher is a better performer. Thanks.
Have bought a new dob. No need to answer this one.
