February 28, 2012 at 1:50 pm #44127ravnosticParticipant**dear God, please make this thread orange.**
Did it work?
February 28, 2012 at 2:08 pm #44128staplermofoParticipantAnd it was so, when staplermofo typed a message, and checked it, and posted it. And, behold, there came a color unto the thread, and it was orange.
This beginning of miracles did staplermofo in NikonDX1 of Hardware of Get technical, and manifested forth his glory; and nobody believed on him. And when he thought thereon, he wept.February 28, 2012 at 2:26 pm #44129chupathingieParticipantyaknow, that could be very useful for HA imaging if custom drivers are available… the eff. FL on that crop would be insane mated to some good tele-glass. I don’t think vignetting would be much of an issue :lol:, but guiding would.
February 28, 2012 at 4:17 pm #44130orionidParticipantYour prayer worked. Except it’s not five yet, so pray again later.
February 28, 2012 at 5:48 pm #44131lokisbongParticipantAnd It’s Orange again. Sounds like a pretty good deal Pope_Larry_II. If I had a laptop and my roommates older telescope I would totally disassemble my web camera. I never use it anyway.

Spank you much. I went out for a bike ride to allow for extra-orangey time. Here’s my take:
Too good to be true usually is. But at that price I’d be wil…… Kestrana, plug your ears and stop reading this thread. Nothing more to see here. I think this is a horrible idea and want nothing else to do with it.
*ahem* Anyway, as I was saying, I’d buy two of each. And just might if it looks like I could drag even my little scope out anytime in the next couple of fortnights. I’d try one just going lens to eyepiece, and one to rip out the lens and go prime focus. I’d start with jewelers screwdrivers and my optical spanners, and graduate to vice grips and a ball-peen hammer if need be. Duct tape and solder can fix quite a bit.
/Speaking of solder, hey, Olavf, does going out of my way to NOT buy RoHS compliant devices make me a bad person? Or a tinfoil hatter? Or just an old, stodgy, stick in the mud who likes his lead-based solder?

I’ll say it: Tin-lead just works much better than the tin-antimony. I was soldiering some steel this past week, and I dislike the plumbing grade stuff.
