Yay! Today I was given my first telescope from a family member. I posted recently about it been a saxon, turns out we got our wires crossed. Turns out it's a 144/900 Newtonian Reflector, from Ebay of all places. Was never used, so basically it's brand new
Now i know people say the Ebay ones are bad, but as this is my first scope i am really happy with it. The finderscope needs to be reaimed everytime i use it, but thats my own fault as i need to disassemble it time i finish with it.
First on the agenda will be to build a sturdy case to house it all. then turning my red dot scope into a more reliable finder.
It came with
K10mm and K25mm eye pieces
1.5x Erector
2x Barlow
Sun filter
moon filter
On an EQ1 mount i believe
6x30 finderscope.
No where near as flash as what most of you guys have, but i'm stoked with it
