Going to need a long ladder!!

The longer focal length would be great for a planetary scope but if you are making it as a Dob then it has to be useable so some trade offs would be necessary I think or you will end up with a great scope that is never used.

Why do you need such a large aperture for a planetary scope anyway?

Cheers
