203mm ONTC 8" f/4.5 - 900mm FL - Baader Steeltrack, TSGPU corrector, 2-secondaries, extras...

Up for sale is my 8” f/4.5 Carbon fiber tube ONTC.  This is the ONTC809 with an aperture of 203mm and focal length of 900mm.

I have several good parts on it as well.  Currently a 88mm secondary mirror which helps if you want to run a full frame camera on something this fast.  This is the GSFS88F on teleskop services website. ($270)

I also have a 70mm secondary with a removable 3d printed aperture mask on it if you wanted to do more of an APS-C sensor sized camera and less obstruction.  Both excellent mirrors.

It has a TSGPU 1.0x GPU corrector which is full frame capable.  ($315)

It also has a Baader Steeltrack Focuser ($525) which is really a good solid focuser.  I have a 3D printed bracket for a ZWO Electronic Focuser I will include.   This focuser has a modified baseplate that is form fitting to prevent light leaks.  It also has a adjustable draw tube seal to also stop light leaking at the top.  A 2 watt polyimide heater is also attached to it f you want to help prevent dew on the coma corrector.

An apertura dovetail plate – 14”  ($140) is also attached to the bottom ready to mount.

The rear is also a custom 3D printed 80mm fan system which is double baffled and no light leaks can occur from rear as well as evacuate any air currents.

Lastly, I have a custom dew shield I built for it that also has a mount under it specifically for a Gemini flat panel.

The scopes are crazy good quality, thick carbon and very well made.  They are about $2100 usd on Teleskop Services website + customs and tariffs and shipping.  With the Baader Steeltrack focuser, dovetail, extra secondary mirror, 3d printed dew shield and rear fan system likely $3500 or more to the door, and this one's available 

$2300 + shipping.  I will cover paypal fees.  Packaging will likely be 2 boxes.  Open to some trade ideas, scopes, mounts, same focal length or longer.
