17.5" f5 Dob Completed

Here is a pic of my just completed 17.5" f5 truss Dob. Basically it is a Krieg and Berry style scope, with a few modifications (roller bearings/Teflon in altitude, Moonlite truss connectors, surface scrubbing fans and vents and a few others). Still need to sew a shroud though

Cheers!

Nice looking scope Tim. I like the finish.

Nice work Tim! Can't wait the haul my a** over to Ottawa and see it in person one of these days.

Great looking scope! Nice woodwork and I like the lightening holes, they make it look even nicer.
Floyd

Quality job. I really like the color.

P.S. It looks bigger than 17.5".

Congratulations! It looks very nice, but I'd like more pictures and details.
And how well does it work?

Dark skies!

Very pretty scope! But why do you want a shroud? Instead, you might consider a baffle opposite the focuser on the underside of the secondary cage, like the one you've got on the top side.
