For those who would like a little more info on these dobbie mounts, here are a couple of links I started on the two mounts pictured below.
The first is to the 8" f/4 scope. I made a new mirror cell for it with hickny, and we share this amazing little scope:

This second link is for a 4.5" scope that belongs to my wife's school she's a teacher at. It wasn't being used because it was mounted on an eq. mount that scared the crap out of everyone who even momentarily entertained the idea of using it:

Common Troy, come back to The Light. Come back to visual astronomy. Revel in the enlightenment!
