[SOLD] Mini Tower and 8" F4 Newt

$800
Pick up preferred

This has been a great mount for me.
It runs on either 240 or 12vt or with 8 AA's.
I've used it regularly for imaging the Sun and Moon. Before buying my eq mount I was also using it to image bright DSO's.
It could probably do with a regrease, and it does show general wear and tear. Not surprising as it's seen regular use since 2008.

Bintel branded 8" F4 Newt.
I've been using this as my visual scope for quite a few months now. It was bought just last year. There is a couple of scratches on the ota where the screw from the camera piggy back hole is. Otherwise in great nick. It's the model with the BIG collimation knobs.

I was going to hang onto the mount until after the eclipse, but have decided to buy myself another dob instead and need to sell to help offset the purchase.

Frank, I prefer to sell locally. Freight costs are too prohibitive.
Thanks for your interest.
