A rubber motorcycle inner tube :) can you guess what it's for :D

If it is for modding the counterweights could you let me know what size is required and exactly what to do as I want to do this to my counterweights for the NEQ6 but don't know what to do???

Should be good Mark, my 16mm Nirvana is my favourite ep at the moment! Give us a first-light report when you can?

Lp not as bad as you would think in sandiacre but I do have a number of street lights close by so hoping for good things from the filter, spoke to the guy who makes the astronomik filters and he showed us some images he had taken with and without the filter in his light polluted area and the difference was amazing and he was using an unmodded camera

Can't wait to see what you think to the Ethos when you do a first light report. There will be a big grin on your face. The view will be so wide, you'll feel you could climb in and walk around inside it. :D .
