Greetings and Happy Saturday... At age 62, my neck no longer supports standing on my head nor does it allow for greater than ninety degree rotations either direction of straight ahead. For that reason, I am looking to implement a right-angle finder scope for a Dobsonian that I have. I am aware of two commercial products. These are: 1. Orion 9x50 Illuminated Right-Angle CI Finder Scope ($129 at Amazon) 2. Orion 9x50 Right-Angle Correct-Image Finder ($89.99 at Amazon) There may be others. My questions are: 1. It seems that there are few right-angle finders on the market. Why? 2. Could one use a "standard" finder scope and mount it at right anges with the use of a mirror? In other words, mount a mirror on the scope to direct the sky image away from the scope at a ninety degree angle and use a finder scope to look into that mirror. Could this not be a $10 solution to a $90 problem? This is my first post here so, if there is a FAQ somewhere on this topic, please let me know. -- Watch 'Yer Top Knot and Keep Your Powder Dry, James Richard Harvey - The Wyoming Geezer The Great Curmudgeon AKA El Gran Cascarrabias AKA J.
