| See your PM. Perhaps I can also make it myself but I question my own skills for this tricky part.

Busy, busy busy. I built the bases for 17 more focusers. The spider, diagonal, and focuser to the right is for my 10" travel scope project. Top center is a focuser with a custom adapter for a 6" diameter tube. Made out of aluminum. If you only count 16, I already built a new one up out of a new base. I couldn't wait to see one.

| Andy, EBAY sucks! Anyoone who buys in that crappy venue deserves whatever they get, for they're all morons looking for somethig for nothing. Nobody gets anything of real value for nothing, nobody!

Now Harry,
I for one don't appreciate being called a Moron.
Seems to me that the moron is the one who indiscriminately denigrates a whole section of the population only because he doesn't have the brains to separate the junk from the real bargains available there.

| Happyharry, I guess I don't understand your total retaliation towards eBay. I have sold many a focuser on eBay, and if you check my feedback all people are delighted of the quality, speed of delivery, and over all eBay experience. I'm not selling a "made in japan" focuser. The price I sell these are half what they are worth. My hourly labor is pennies on the dollar. What other venue is there that I can reach people making home made scopes? I have been buying and selling on eBay for a couple of years now and haven't had a problem at all. Are you saying that I'm a moron because I sell my focusers too cheap? Do you want to buy 10 and sell them for twice what I'm selling them? We can work out a deal then.
