Alex,
I got the scope from Mike Salway approx 2 yrs ago (I think). Not sure how long Mike had it before then. Mirror is centre spotted and has no chips or scratches.
If you're keen in having a look let me know..

cheers
Mark

I'll be picking it up tomorrow

I hope to be able to mod it so it will work on a heavy duty EQ mount to allow a camera to be mounted for imaging.

You never know it may just work.

Cheers,

Hi Alex,

Definitely will work! This was Mike's Planetary workhorse for a while and churned out some sensational pics from an Eq mount (and even on the Dobsonian base)

GO for it before I buy it!

Cheers

Chris
