Now on to several interesting features of Jimi's 48"
scope.
f you haven't seen his scope as a whole, suggest that you hit
Telescopes link on left or bottom and scroll all the way to the bottom.
Look at the collimation bolts. 1.5" bolt
and ratchet!
The back of the 48". Ten fans that draw air from the
front of the scope. He runs it pretty much all night! The
fans run on magnetic bushings, so no vibrations!
