Well, my dream scope would be the Astrophysics 5" f 6, all I need is $4000. Anyone willing to donate to the cause. Seems like as a homeowner something always pops up to spend money on other than toys.
That Explore Scientific 80mm is also a nice little scope. It is a triplet
so it may cost more than $400 used. My friend won one last fall at the Pasadena astronomy show. He said he paid $5 for the scope. I offered him $10 and he refused. LOL.
I split Antares and Delta Cygni with my WO 120mm at Rainbow Point. I think I'll try Lamba Cygni and Mu Cygni next time on the mountain. I'm happy with the scope and will keep it or until they come out with a 140mm.

It may have been a tubing manufacturer, I'll call around this afternoon.

I have gotten sprinkler parts from them, thats not where I bought the tubing. I'll see if I can find the supplier, I do remember their general location. It was West of Redwood and south of 72th So.
Was it Sprinkler Supply Co.? They are in that general area, but a little east of Redwood, IIRC.
I talked to a salesman at Sprinkler World and they said that I could order the tubing and they'd drive it up from their Springville yard free, and I could pick it up in Sandy.
