Here is a ridiculous stack of three scopes. wink I was testing my new mounting plates that allow the WO 80mm and the Meade 80mm to mount in different ways.
The Meade will mount on the 127ED or the WO 80mm.
The WO 80mm will mount to the LXD650 directly or to the 127ED.

Here is the guide scope mounted on the 127ED with the same plate being used for this.
Also, you can see the new adapter for the 1.25" focuser that Steve Collett made for me. Now it has a metal focuser instead of the 2" plastic one. grin

Rick Margolies has three friends that may be interested in that scope.
