Mark, I have considered the same project for my UC18. I have the Mallincam DS287m (which I really enjoy) and have been thinking about the DS432m with the 11mm sensor and 9um pixels. I think you just

Linton, He told me he didn't have enough poles for his current production. You might contact him: telescopes@... - Roy

Hi Dragan, Many thanks for that information, I had heard the 25” Classic had been dropped but when I looked at the website the rest of the range were still there. Luckily I have a 20” f5 classic

Hi Linton, Yes. He discontinued the Classics last year. I don't think he has any more in stock of any size. As far as UC's go, he's in the midst of a production run of UC's in various apertures.

Have I missed something? Is he ceasing production?? Linton L.J.Guise Physics Dept. Bedford School. www.bedfordschool.org.uk/observatory

Here is the company that Dave recommends: https://www.onlinemetals.com/en/buy/aluminum-round-tube?q=%3Aprice-asc%3AAlloy%3A6061%3AShape%3ATube-Round&checkbox=on&sort=price-asc# (

Mark, and all, I just heard from Kriege and he no longer has poles in stock. He recommended a company, Online Metals. Roy

Roy: Yup, that works too! Mark

Mark, I think I'll be ordering a new set of poles from Mr. Kriege, and then start trimming them down. Roy in New Mexico

Thought I would post this here in addition to the ServoCAT forum. Unfortunately, there are ObsessionUsers archives to search through on this topic. I have been working on trying to get PHD2 talking to

Whew! I figured both of those were pretty obvious, but hey, measure twice . . . Was NOT trying to nit-pick, just verify! I'll be ordering new poles today! Thanks SO much! Mark

Good grief, 1/4" would be good for a scale model obsession. It is a 1-1//4", I forgot the leading 1.? Looks like also I missed a zero for tube thickness, you are correct it is 0.035. See attached

Greg: Exactly what I'd like to do! But I've a couple questions - you show OD on the poles as 1/4 inch - can I assume that's a typo, as that's a damn small OD. Mine measure at 1.25. And the thickness

I have done this for my 18" f4.5 classic - bought a second set of aluminum poles. The ones that match my scope are 1/4" OD 0.35" wall thickness 6061-T6 aluminum tubing.? I bought them from here (

Mark, I did what you want to do with my 15” Classic Obsession to use with my MallinCam camera. ?Yes, you want a separate set of truss poles. ?Because the point of focus is different for all

Frank: Yes, a second set of poles was exactly what I was hoping to do - I'd NEVER risk my primary usage! I've got Dave's book around here somewhere, but I don't believe there's anything about the mods

I had read about such endeavors in the past? but do not recall where.? I did read Dave craigies book on building the dobsonian reflector, though some years ago.? ?I do believe he explained the

So I've got multiple telescopes (don't we all?) including an 18" classic. LOVE my Obsession. However, I've also got a couple of nice Mallincam video cameras, and I know that there isn't enough inward

Very cool Greg, thanks! I’ve been using AN/SC on my 18” Classic since I got it 15 years ago – at least once I cleaned up the installation that the previous owner had done! But there’s a number

For those of you with SC/AN on your Obsession scopes, I have been working on how to control the scope with Stellarium or Cartes du Ciel planetarium programs (both free) running on a PC using either a
