I was just saying to dan how some of the first EP's I looked through were your TV's and now I'm ruined forever when it comes to EP's ha ha ha! I've entered the euromillions (91 million jackpot) if I win I may get a few TV EP's and a couple of plane wave scopes and a couple of properties abroad with fully equipped observatories and of course a permanent observatory for EMS with an amazing array of different scopes to cater for all preferences! It could happen! Ha ha ha! Hope you enjoy ya new anglers shame about the tube rings, sorry to hear that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philjay Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) Darn it ! - the blinking rings don't flippin fit so I've got to send the chuffin things back. Well miffed! What!!!!!!! Oh no Im really sorry about that. I'm gutted. Your tube is 102mm OD on average Kim. The next size up are 105 mm and they are too loose I know because Ive tried the scope in mine and I had to pack them out Are the new rings bigger than the old ones? they measured at 100mm and they fitted but distorted the tube, the new ones at 102mm should actually fit better are they still tight?

Brantuk Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 They measure the same as the old ones Phil - and I asked them to check before shipping as well - told them it must be 102mm inside dia and not 100mm. Too tight - totally useless - at least I can get my money back. I'll try and source elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw your post Cazz. Just today I have been drawing up plans to mount my big Baz Battery to the bottom of my AE pier, and considering motorising the slo mos on the Skytee and possibly implementing a little bit of extra dew control, and maybe even bracketing the laptop to the pier .
