Astro-Nutz Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Hi all, many thanks for letting me in. My name is Lee and ive been into astronomy since a young lad, so 40yrs on ive acquired some kit and even built myself a bespoke obsy among many other projects. My main interest these days is astrophotography to which i am 18months into still learning but ive had some nice results so far 😉 Ive had all sorts of scopes in the past, from the Astronomy Now build your own newt, to Barry Watts over at Beacon Hill build me my first proper newt, a skeleton framed 12" GEM.... still "wow" comes to mind when i looked through that the first time, to today where i have a benched 10" Meade SCT at the mo because i run a dual rig for furthering the AP, scopes at the mo are 2 William Optics fracs, a ZS61 with my new unused ASI2600MC-Pro and a ZS81 with a ASI294MC-Pro all sat on my CEM60. I have loads to share of projects ive done and loads to learn from you kind folks 😉 Looking forward to chatting in the forums real soon 👍 Edited April 7, 2021 by Astro-Nutz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkulin Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hi Lee, So pleased you got my hint to join over here. You can relax here, the forum was set up whereby it is acknowledged that there are no bullying rules, just enjoy it as it grows, we might not be as big as some of the other places but we are not into scoring points. All the best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carastro Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Hi Lee, wow, what an introduction. Fantastic Home observatory build. There are a bunch of us imagers on here, and there is a nice chat thread for when you're "in-action" so to speak (anybody Playing Tonight). Sounds like you have got a lot to offer on here.
