Well here's the first arrival. It should be a bit of fun to use. The collimation was waaayyyyy out, but once it was roughly collimated (and I mean rough) the view wasn't too bad. The 12mm eyepiece that comes with it is easy to use, but a 20mm that I put in worked better. I'm thinking this is, again, more to do with the collimation.
It's nice and light and easy to use, though to change eyepieces you have to unscrew the existing 12mm and then thread the next one on. I see this as a benefit when working with school kids. They can't pull the eyepieces out and drop them.
Hey it's certainly not the hubble, but it will do what it's s'posed to do, easily transportable, low - medium viewing of the moon, Jupiter and Saturn and terrestrial viewing (yep it is right way up and right way around) for primary school kids.
