  • Closed: Sat 31 Jul 2004, 12:56 pm
  • Listing #: 13795302
kit includes (NOTE: THIS IS NOT A TELESCOPE, BUT MOST OF THE PARTS YOU NEED TO MAKE ONE)

One 10" (250 mm) F/5 parabolic mirror

Mirror Details: Made of 1.50" thick Pyrex and ground to 1/10th Lambda accuracy.
Covered in Al and Protected with SiO
Over 92% reflective. Made by Synta in China (makes mirrors for most big branded telescopes)

One 2.75" secondary elliptical mirror with holder
One Finder scope 6 x 30mm with a 90° angle view

One 1.25" - 2" smooth nylon bearing Crayford Focuser.

One 6.5mm eyepiece
One 25 mm eyepiece
One 2X Barlow lens

To buy all this stuff would probably cost $1000. The reserve is much lower than that. To buy the mirror alone new, is at least $600.

All in like new condition. Do not ask for a buy now price, as you will be turned down.

Budget on $100 - $200 more to complete your telescope.
