Telescope cover.

Here is the place to talk about all those equipment(Telescope, Mounts, Eyepieces, etc...) you have. Not sure which scope/eyepiece is best for you? Trash it out here!

Telescope cover.

Post by enewmen »

Hi all.

Where can I find a cover for a telescope? Something like a garbage bag big enough to cover a 8" dob?
(Anything?)
I don't know where to start looking.

thanks!
and Happy New Year!

something like that, but smaller? And larger than a garbage bag.
Anyway, better too big than too small.

wow..getting a bag that can hold an 8" Dob would be a challenge. If you need it just to protect it from dust, maybe a bolster case may do the trick! But for transport, have you considered a golf bag? But I dont think here is one big enough for an 8"! In anycase good luck on your search.
ps Alternatively, can get a tailor to make it for you? :)
