Fullerscopes Newtonian Telescope | eBay"Fullerscopes 8.5" f6 Newtonian Reflector Telescope. Mounted on Original refurbished Mk111 Equatorial mount. Slow motion controls, pedestal base, setting circles. All in good working order.
Excellent David Hinds optics. Which may well need a recitation after all these years! Collection only please."
Apart from the items listed there is a finder just out of sight. There are also reinforcing cast end rings and an extra ring to allow the tube to be rotated without it sliding down through the normal tube rings. Ideal for obtaining a comfortable eyepiece position. Roughly translating "recitation" suggests the mirrors need re-coating. The tube looks to be unpainted grey PVC. The De-luxe version would have been painted gloss white.
I have considerably brightened the single auction image to bring out the detail. I can still remember looking though one of these belonging to members of the Bath Astronomical Society. It seemed like a very exotic and expensive bit of kit to me at the time.
The seller is only looking for £149 "Buy it now." Collection only. West Sussex.
The seller has accepted an offer. Congratulations to the new owner!
