Hi Guys
Hi Guys, Just wanted to say G'day.
I have had a quick browse thru the forum and found a lot of interesting stuff. If I may make a small contribution to the topic of cleaning your optics(DOB),I have an article that was featured in Sky $ Telescope July 1997, that goes thru the whole process. I have zipped the 4 pages down to 1.2M (bmp).If you can't find the S&T issue, I would be happy to email it to you.
I hope that our W.A.A.C.er members agree to join you on this site. Will post back after meeting nite on Thurs 3rd.
Regards, Laurie. Secty.
Wollongong Amateur Astronomy Club.

Hi Laurie.
Great to see you signed up to the forums,
I cleaned my 10" mirror the other night, it was a much easier process than I expected it to be. I'll write something up for the website when I get a chance, so that others may learn from my (and others) experiences.
I hope other WAAC members come and join in the great discussions on these forums, hope to see you back soon!
If you want any links or info added to the IceInSpace website ( club listings), just email me the info! Thanks.
