How do you transport your scopes to observing sites? Do you know where I could get a good case for my scope? What do you use?
I store my scopes out of thier cases in the shed,
which never gets too hot or humid.
Obviously everything is capped for dust or bugs.
When transporting to a site I just put a quilt into
the boot and cradle the OTA into it.
Did the scope not come in a box when you got it?
I still use the box the ETX was shipped in as it's
perfect for the job when going on longer journeys.
Although having said that,
I did take the OTA on a plane as hand luggage once,
in a rucksack padded by T'shirts, jocks n' socks!
:lol:
Some strange looks and questions at the Xray machine but
all was good.
It fit into the overhead also like a glove.
Getting back to your question,
If you really want to do a good job,
there are guys out there on ther web that will build
custom flight cases for your OTA.
