WTS: Takahashi Newtonian MT130 Full Set-***WITHDRAWN

Unfortunately, Takahashi has long since stopped making this outstanding MT series. 130mm aperture at f6 native, about 6kg OTA. Both mirro...

A Newbie's Impression of the Takahashi EM200 Temma 2M Mount

With some time on my hands tonight, I will carry on with a short review of the excellent and underrated medium capacity mount by Takahashi. Many iterations of this mount have come to pass, the Temma 2M is now superceded by the Temma 2Z, with newer electronics but mechanically identical to the 2M ver...

A Newbie's Impression of the Takahashi FSQ106 EDX4-Update 2

Having sold the FSQ85, a replacement was needed. After some asking around on potential 4inch scopes, I settled on the bigger version of the FSQ series. The 106 in its latest iteration - the EDX4 - comes without the captain's wheel and replaced this with a massive 4inch focuser and short draw-tube to...

Re: WTS - Vixen Porta Mount with tripod adapter and accessor

To clarify - this mount comes without a tripod, but it has the standard 3/8" tripod adapter built in already, so will fit the standard camera tripods directly.
This set costs about SGD$430 new, excluding shipping and GST, so I am selling it at a very good price.
Come grab it and go obbing!
