Thanks for all the info

You know no one has commented on if say 1/3 of the OTA was hanging out the boot. By my thinking this would negate transport issues on most cars and I do't see a problem with it (often get 2-3+ meter lengths of wood that I transport with some hanging out the back and secured etc.).
There is only one problem mate. You don't look at the stars through a lenght of wood with 750 times magnification! And I think people thought you were only joking about it!

Also, had another look at my GSO 8X50 finderscope, and found I had a few more threads of focus adjustment left (just was binding a bit). Now I can get the focus damn nice and crisp. Nearly as crisp as half of my trusty Pentax 10X50 binos, which is pretty stiff competition.
