Diary update:

After discussions with Dr Richard Gillespie of Museum Victoria, I received an email from the Great-great-granddaughter of Thomas Gaunt recently and have sent her photographs and information on this mount.

I am hoping get some more details of the history of Mr Gaunt.
I have decided to built a refractor more in keeping with the size and style of the original Robert Ellery designed, Thomas Gaunt built refractor and have listed the big Istar for sale today. I will miss those fantastic lunar views that almost feel like you're on the moon.
