600mm F4.5 Dobsonian telescope of fantastic quality.
This telescope was built by Andrew Robertson some 13 years ago to the highest standard. The complete build was fully documented in the April 2013 BAA journal VOL 123 NO.2
The Scope is fitted with a StellarCat drive system very precisely fitted so that it is able to keep objects in the fov at 700x
The StellarCat is linked to the latest Nexus DCC Pro and Scopedog eFinder sysytem.

This scope was a very popular attraction at the Kelling Heath Star parties providing the observer with breath taking views. Many visual and ground breaking observations made by Andrew Robertson using this scope have been published in the Webb Deep Sky Society Journal.

Other features that come with this package are:
Moonlite focusser
Baader Sky Surfer red dot pointer
full shroud
Secondary dew heater with batteries
Mirror cover with 240v low wattage heater to keep the main mirror dry.
12v Tracer battery to power goto system
Fully weather proof scope cover
150mm mirror box mounted Bresser finder scope
Mirror transport box
Wheel barrow handles
Numerous spare cables

Reason for sale:
I have had this telescope for nearly 3 years purchasing it as an upgrade to my observatory 20" fork mounted Newtonian. Unfortunately my lack of ability with the software and programs side of things has meant that its use has been virtually non existent in my hands :(
Any prospective purchaser will need a full Transit sized van or a large box trailer to transport the scope and it is very heavy.

If you want further information or images please contact me.
Price: £5,000
