dust cover for the lightbridge.

Has anyone come up with a better solution than the what is offered? I dont like the idea of putting a dust cover directly onto the mirror. Theres always a little bit of scraping and over time I dont think it will do he mirror any good.

Thanks

Hi WR,

I have the shroud installed, and then just drape a sheet (about a metre square) of fine muslin cloth over the exposed end of the scope (parked upright of course !)

Seems to work ok
