How good are they?
l have a question that l have been trying to work out for a while and thought l would pose it to the learned members: l recently spoke to Mark Schutting regarding the price of a mirror for a 10" newt of very good quality.
The price given was in my opinion reasonable for a good quality mirror but now the question, it was still twice the price of a complete 10" Bintel or Andrews dob so how do you conclude that the dob really is any good in comparison to anything else?
A friend of mine is wanting a scope so l'm looking at either buying or building one from scratch, is the dob really only any good because it is cheap?, how many people have a chance to look through high quality scopes and can therefore comment on how good the current dobs really are.
