Cut telescope in half
So im sitting here thinking how am I going to transport my 12" 1.5m long reflector in my little 4 door lancer.....
I could cut it!
If I were to cut it in half then make 2 rings out of MDF to go around the outside screwed to the tube from the inside and use some bolts to reconnect the halves would it work?
My concern is the distance from the primary to the secondary.
See my dodgy MSpaint drawing for reference.
Red is the MDF ring. anywhere from 16mm to 32mm.
black is tube
white is bolts. probab M6 with wingnuts.
