Description

This one was a real victory for me.

My old C8 was bought used and very very beat up for about $100 last year. I had attempted originally to refurb and fix it however over time the collimation would slip, or there would be a secondary slip and after that, it became a dust catcher on the shelf.

I took it upon myself to take care of this scope to the best of my financial and technical abilities. After buying new collimation tools, screws and carefully disassembling the scope for cleaning this was the first test shot- and while not perfect, it was a very proud moment to see it all work!

Seeing was very very bad on the imaging night, 1/5 so I am looking forward to seeing it when its a bit better.
