Fullerscopes Telescope Mountings

This blog has become my ATM design, build and imaging diary. I have recently built several new telescopes, a large equatorial mounting and a raised 10' [3m] dome on an octagonal building. Be aware that I deal with building solar telescopes. Which are potentially VERY dangerous! I can accept NO responsibility for any action not directly supervised by myself. You are NOT entitled to blame any other person for your OWN lack of skill or ignorance. You copy me at your own peril!

Another 6" Fullerscopes reflector and mounting have come up for sale:

"This is a vintage 6 inch Fullerscopes telescope from the 1960's. Has been stored for many years. Sold as seen. No Guarantees. Needs work."

This instrument is rather better equipped and finished than the last one. Though nothing is mentioned of the optical accuracy.

This instrument fetched £80 in its eBay auction.
