Engineered and Scratch built Tripod mounted 6″ Dobsonian F6 760mm Telescope
– Zeta Orionis Adjustable Focal length carrier and 1.25 / 2″ smooth helical focusser
Professional Marine Engineer’s assisted his son with machining and elements of the design were obviously his work (engineer was a complex character e.g. built extremely detailed models of C18 wooden warship hulls but did not allow viewer easy access to the finely detailed internal modelling of bunks, firing deck etc.
This was a one off father and son project, no specific defects, manufactured with care and precision, very few signs of use.
Really impressive piece, everything has been well thought out and rewards careful on site setup and collimation, it works.
Room for improvement and modification yet works extremely well as is.
I have not understood the counterweight system as yet.
He took his eyepieces with him or just had the one he swapped between the finder and this.
Builder disappeared in exotic location.
See alternate listing for matching finder and eyepiece which was made for this Telescope.
Or will re-Auction whole Lot.
Viewing welcomed, London N16. it is hard to judge just how well made this is from these photos. Collection preferred but I will be able to UPS as it weighs around 24 kg in its box 93x30x30 cm
