Hi all, Astrophotos from FS-60CB refractor. General Description: FS-60CB + sky90 reducer + IDAS LPS EQ-6 Starshoot Pro 21st June 2009 NUS M8 and M20: 10 x 5 mins http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2469/3648650929_993a72f282_o.jpg M17 and M16: 12 x 5min http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3613/3649457730_7c4a...

Hi, My personal view is 1) Use a laser collimator for initial alignment. The main advantage is that, you can collimate without running back and forth between the primary screws and the focuser. 2) Then do fine collimation using a star. Oh, anyway, I got a laser collimator going at a reasonable price...

Hi,

Selling 1 x Atik filter wheel at S$200. Selling because I want to get the Starlight Xpress Wheel, so help me.

Hey, I exchange homes with you ok? You come stay in Singapore, while I stay under the dark skies in Australia.

Hahaha.

For SCT users, I throw in a SCT to 2" compression ring adapter for $10 (package price only) so that your SCT can use the 2" diagonal.

Hi,

Selling the 2" diagonal stated above. This is the 99% reflectivity one. Some cosmetic defects on the body, but the mirror is completely scratch-free. ----- S$120 ( Collect at NUS )

Selling because I went to get William Optics Durabright 2" diagonal.

Hi,

Free from Phil Harrington's book.

I tried on XP, it's ok. Not sure whether it works on Vista.

Ya true.

I saw that he is considering MiniTower which I saw at Joo Beng's house, I find it actually quite hefty. So I thought his definition of grab-and-go is like things you can put into a car and setup just beside it.
