Dear Peter,
I live in Mount Waverley, Vic and would be very interested to have a look at your scope, if still available.
My main question (due to a bad back) is: how heavy is it?
The other question is how it mounts: what (threaded) holes are available or what brackets are needed?
Scope is 3.9 kg light incl 50mm finder and start diagonal/ focuser.
When I used it last I had a set of Baader Eudiascopic, the same as the 5 element Clestron Ultima, and the back focus was adjusted so all 6 eyepieces between 7.5 mm and 35 mm would work fine.
As this Mak has a fully adjustable main mirror the back focus can be adjusted by moving the mirror slightly.
My eyepieces gave me magnifications from 42 - 200x, 1 had
7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 35.
