Does anyone know where I can find 8" or so aperture Cassegrain optics? (Got one hiding in a closet? :-) Thanks, -- William

Hi William --
I have optics which date back to ~ 1980. I shouldn't have bought the set because I didn't have the time to follow thru with construction.
I've also lost (or can't find) documentation.
The optics were designed to be used in Cass or Newtonian configuration and the primary now sits in Newtonian mode in a very rough tube. The primary is mounted in a Novak cell.
I don't use the scope enough to really need it but don't have any idea of its current value.
If you want to try to work something out, let's talk -- [email protected]
