New Scope TEC110Fluorite triplet

I just received my latest scope a TEC110 fluorite triplet "Eclipse"

http://upload.pbase.com/gregbradley/...38569622/large

This is a calcium fluorite oiled triplet F5.6 with flattener and TEC's own focuser.

It is superbly made. This is a rare scope and I think only about 50 or less have been made. Its destined to be a classic.

Noone else I am aware of makes a 110 fluorite oiled triplet or for that matter fluorite triplet (Tak used to make them for huge prices).

I am now looking forward to first light to see how it compares with other widefield imaging scopes.

Greg.
