We have bought a 12 " Dob GSO and are pretty excited about the views we were getting. We knew it needed collimation but were still quite happy. Of course the weatheer has set in so we have not been able to do any viewing after we manually did collimated without any tools. I have attached what our mirror set up looked like through the eyepiece and we were quite excited with the views. Do you think we will get even more so after we fix the collimation. The red circle is the outline of the base of the tube.
