Thanks Martin.

Wow, that is some serious disassembly work. Really interesting to see the internals. All we needed to do for our set up was simply remove the Solar Scout Quark in it's housing from the scope by undoing four screws and make an adapter for it to fit onto a M42 thread.

We noticed your set up in the thread showing your peltier cooled camera. Do you have any details of that set up and has it been successful? What camera are you using and how much cooling have you achieved? Why cool for solar or do you use this camera for DSO long exposures?
