Hello Everyone,
It's good to be on board the "ice" forum. I thought I'd put my first post here as I am a beginner as such to this forum (and it does say "Beginners start here"). I have actually been doing astronomy as a hobby and a job (on & off) for some time now. It's been around 34 years since I started as a teenager. A part of my job involves astronomy in a teaching capacity, so this topic occasionally comes up from time to time, depending upon student choice, amongst other factors.
I thought that I'd soon add a current project of mine, regards attaching the new Guan Sheng red dot finder to a simple refractor. I'll put a post up (in the correct forum section) explaining the construction, together with a photo, when the paint and lacquer dry.
Also, please excuse me if I don't look daily at the forum as my work can be demanding at times, so I will get back to you eventually if you ask me something.
Well all the best for now.
Enjoy the eclipse next week.
