By the way, adding a piece of teflon tape to the inner edge of the focuser turns that into a smooth, easy to tweak operation--and resolves any of the jump issues with the push/slide focuser!




I just noticed that Edmund has incorporated teflon into their newest version of the Astroscan. They've also added a red dot finder. Everything else looks the same. I wish they would return production to the USA, at the same standards as before.
