If it hasn't been recommended yet, here's a good Telescope FAQ.

Thanks. My scope is a Starmaster. I wonder of Rick Singmaster still runs it. If so, I could probably buy the equipment through him. The Admiral |

Why do I have the feeling you own what is now called the "Oak Classic?"  Yep, Rick is still doing an excellent job, and producing very nice scopes. I just got a 14.5" truss dob from him, with the full goto package.  If you want really good advice on adding setting circles for one, goto the "starmaster_scopes" Yahoo Group and ask there. I'm sure someone will be able to provide detailed instructions. If that doesn't work, I'm pretty sure Rick himself would walk you through the process. |

Yep, Oak Classic. I think it was the last 7 inch scope that he built. It's really a nice scope and so easy to carry out into the driveway. No sidewalks here so i'm a driveway astronomer. Thanks for the links, I'll check them out. The Admiral |
