well not what you guys recommended, and not what I now understand I should really have....

but at $1000.00 it was too good to pass up.
hurriedly put it together last night but was having trouble getting it to focus on the moon, mozzies were getting a free meal and were really annoying the ^%#p out of me so i went inside and went to bed. ...When all else fails read the instructions, if that fails ring 1800 000 000 where your usually told to read the instructions!! duh big focus knob wasnt there last night...I swear.....hahaha
oh well tonight...bugga we have rain forecast for next 5 days days or so

I have a mill and lathe so hopefully a project will be to make up a wedge to allow AP?
other projects will be to make up a small battery supply and a AC to dc supply
need to get timer and AC supply for to control aperture on canon 40d and provide adequate power ..any one know if the are the ones on ebay from china/hong kong are ok?
