DO you mean the telescope should be stored diagonal / EP up?

Hi All, this is an update to my search for a suitable cabinet for my 8SE. A week ago I contacted Digihub and ordered the same cabinet as Sam Lee has used before. The item was delivered promptly, COD so dun even have to pay online etc.

Before the delivery man left, he left a note with my family member to ask me to call back their office. Next day I called and the sales rep (Alan) told me he just want to tell me how to remove the sliding tray and the attachment. Very thoughtful of him as I did tell him I will be keeping my scope inside and am concerned about the clearance inside the cabinet.

The purchase has been a pleasant one, thanks to Alan and his team.

Just adding another data point to this thread. I house the 8SE vertically.
