Hi spikeface,

mate, what are you thinking about? A 12"er and already thinking of another puppy without training this one!

Here's a tip on how to get TWO scopes for the price of one. Your 12" 'light bucket' can be tamed by getting a sheet of black card board to cover its top, and, with some simple maths, cut out a hole in this card to the diameter needed to give you a higher f/ ratio. This will effectively give you a "refractors" properties, and not killing the piggy bank (and saving face with the better half!).


Let us know how you go.
