4" Solar Scope OTA $130

Hello all. I have for sale a 4" solar scope, which I made myself. The mirrors are un-aluminized, obviously to eliminate most of the reflection. The primary is a f10 mirror.

Not much else to say really, I have added pics, need to sell as I am moving. Pick up from Tocumwal NSW or I can arrange a pick up point from Epping in Melbourne. Selling cheap.

$130.

I should add the comment. It was built to cradle in my 8" Dob mount. But, there is a dove plate on it, think it is a plate suited to a GSO mount, so it could be mounted on an EQ type mount as well.

It anyone out there is reasonably handy, you could fit a mounting system of your choice to it, the OTA is made of pine, so easy to work with.

Good luck with the sale, & way to go on making this. Un-aluminized optics is the way to go.
