About the T-Scope

I am wondering if anyone here has or uses a T-scope.
I am looking at several 14" lightweight scopes and his is the lightest and has a lot of good engineering points, plus a very good price with a Swayze mirror.
I am wanting a little feed back on these scopes. If you know about them I would appreciate your responses.

I have one being built now, 14" Swayze with the 18pt mirror cell substituted. I also grabbed a Feathertouch focuser and 9x50 RACI finder and secondary dew heater.

Ed will put just about anything in any combination on for you, just ask. I've seen 3 of his telescopes and when I decided to go for a big dob, he was my first choice.

I visited a guy near me with one recently. He had the ArgoNavis/Servocat upgrades along with the Moonlight CR2 focuser and the scope was beautiful. The motions are as good as any of the large dobs in our club, and the weight is actually lighter than most of them.

I plan to write an extensive review in February/March when I receive mine...
