OK, you talked me into it-----built everything myself, except for the Mitty wedge-----filled the steel pier with sand before the final welding-----

The cute little dog must be peeking sadly at the LX200 as you got a new love.

this is my 10" LX200GPS in my observatory, with Coronado PST and William Optics Zenithstar 80 on top of it. I also attached the LPI to the Z80 and my ATK 16HRC camera to the LX200. Normally I do not have the PST there, but I thought it would make the image more impressive :-)

It's not a LX200, but is mine. I purchased two weeks ago and it arrived 6 days later. This is my first purchase and hope all agree it was a wise choice for many years to come.
LXD75 8"SCT. Now all I need is a clear night, warm cloths and free time. I am very green and have been following CN post. I am reading and learning charts. I want to be able to know what I am looking at and what I am looking for. I am sure after I learn the night sky a bit more the GOTO will come in handy. I wish all the best of experiances with thier set-ups. Happy hunting.
PS. I wanted to post a picture but I need to have it on a website to upload?
