For the serious astronomer who won't compromise on quality and useability, the saxon 12" DeepSky Dobsonian Telescope is perfect for you.
Due to the size of this item, this item is sold in three separate components, the the timber base, the tube and the primary cell with mirror. The primary cell will need to be installed into the tube and the scope collimated prior to use.
NOTE: to protect your scope optics from dust, spiders and other pesky critters in storage, we recommend the Pegasus 12" Dust cover for the bottom of your scope. (Product Number 126687)
