Typical weather... Did think about pulling the scope out to check out Mars
before it starts to disappear, and maybe catch Saturn later.
I've finally started, finishing my Bino mount. Since I've got it to machnically
working, I've been a bit slack finishing it. The dew in the air when I've been
using it is starting to effect the bare wood bits. So, Been doing lots of
sanding and shaping, staining. Tomorrow afternoon all the bits will be ready
for the final spray of Estypol to seal all the wooden bits. Not sure if I spelt
that correctly I haven't got a can of it handy. Made a set of solar filters
from the solar filter I made for the old tube newt. Managed to observe the
recent partial solar eclipse with the 20x80's.
regards,CS
