Hi Folks--
Although I already have an Astrola equatorial under a 12.5-inch Newtonian, I have another application that would be ideally solved if I can find a second equatorial with 2.5-inch shafts. I'm hoping to find one that's still in the original configuration, i.e. with the stock gears and the 10-inch circles, etc. I'll consider an entire instrument with a tube assembly if need be. But I'm hoping that eventually I'll find an example where someone has removed the tube for conversion into a Dobsonian, or some such. Thank you, --John W. Briggs, 970-328-6228.
