I just received my new Tak NJP mount and am awaiting delivery of the associated FSQ-106. A friend brought over his 4" TMB refractor. As a first attempt at...
The NJP is quite portable...I take it somewhere twice a month. For the legs, I bought a large dob bag from Orion. For the mount, I bought a large Pelican case....
Good Morning: I am giving thought to buidling an observatory in my backyard and am considering installing a pier as part of the equipment set-up. My question...

That's a very good start Jim. That appears to be a nice telescope camera combo. I might suggest furthur processing to bring down central brightness in...
Kevin, I would suggest putting in a pier that is as large as possible, and adapt it to fit this mount. You never know when you might want a bigger mount....
An excellent point Mike. I certainly don't want to have to rip it out if I move to a larger scope. The largest telescope that I foresee is a C-14 and that...
