I just got very lucky with the Vernonscope eps. I wasn't expecting that when I walked in. It was a once in a lifetime chance encounter. I really just wanted the older C8 which is in really great shape.
Let me ask you about the C90 you have. I have one as well and I would like to try it with the larger eyepieces. Do you need that LAR to use the 1.25 eyepieces? Thanks, Rich

Hey Rich, I was gonna pm ya but thought others may be interested too.

Yes, you'll need the LAR for the new 1.25 visual back you'll also need. That's the only way to get the 1.25 diagonal on there. That original LAR was a little tough to find. I placed a wanted ad for it. I was told the Meade ETX's LAR does not fit the Orange C-90. It really improved the visual performance of that little guy. Next it needs a SCT focuser, I hate that helical ring.

I noticed what you got for the Vernonscope set. I love to see somebody get a find like that. How were you able to keep your composure when you saw that beautiful wooden box set? The drive home must have been sweeeeeeeet.
