    SOLD - no longer available

    Parks is known for their superb optics, and this telescope exemplifies that.  Includes OTA, finderscope, heavy duty equatorial mount, portable pier and Telrad mount.  

    Specifications of the Parks Optical Precision 8" f/6 Telescope:
    8" f/6 Primary Mirror, 8" Primary Mirror Cell, 1.83" Secondary Mirror, 1.83" Secondary Mirror Holder,9 3/8" 4-Vane Spider, 1.25" Rack & Pinion Focuser, 9 3/8" ID (9 ¾" OD) x 48" Fiberglass Tube (white exterior, matte-black non-reflective interior), (2) End Rings (black), 6x30mm Finderscope with Bracket, (2) Dust Covers, Clamp Ring Set.

    PRECISION MOUNT:  1" Solid Steel Shaft Equatorial Mount, R.A. & DEC Locks, Latitude Adjustment, Steel Counter Weight Shaft, 4" Diameter Steel Pier, Metal Saddle, Counter Weights, (3) Cast Aluminum Legs with Leveling Bolts.

    I would consider selling the OTA separately.  I think this would make a wonderful Dob.

    Asking $400.
