I keep the good stuf for myself

and give away VB on the drive-through specials...
as fro transporting scopes.
I'll post a pic later of my custom case I had made for my LX200. It is made from allie, has wheels, handels and six locks on it

to keep everything inside and safe. It has flown to two continents already, with the tripod straped to the top.
but best I ever saw ( sorry to hijack your thread mate... send me the bill

) was a young chap back in africa, with his Dobb in a home amde side-car set-up, attached to a scooter... must try and get you a pic... talk about dedicated.
As for big scopes, well when I bought my crewman, the justification to the wife was...I NEED IT FOR MY WORK...!!!

, butr later she found me measuring the scope box to see if it would fit under the hardtop and smacked me on the head!!!
