10" Bintel dob

Hi all,

I have a six year old 10" Bintel (GSO) dob for sale.

Comes with a 1:1 2" focuser with 1.25" compression ring adaptor, 8X50mm straight through finder (has some paint scratched off during a hasty dismantel way-back-when - only cosmetic, optically fine), and four eyepieces- 25mm & 9mm plossls (standard) and ED 12.5mm & 4mm plossl, all 1.25". Two filters, moon and No. 21 orange, both 1.25". All eyepieces and OTAs have end caps. Original instruction manual.

Optically in good condition. Primary has some minor blemishes, but still very much useable. OTA kept in the box it came from when not in use.

Mount has altitude bearing tensioning springs.

Also included is some Baader Observatory solar filter film & instuctions on how to make your own safe solar viewing filter.

Asking $500.

Pick-up from Sydney, or frieght additional- mount can be dismantelled though will have to be packed separately.

Sorry about the blotchy pics.
