Description

I printed some parts for my Newton Astrograph.
This astrograph is based on the TS-Photon 154/600 f/4 Newtonian telescope, identical in construction to a GSO 6".

I featured the astrograph on my blog and there were requests for the parts. Maybe there is something for you too :)

Here are all the details:

ENG: https://astrophoto-lionbit-com.translate.goog/technik/23-newton-umbau-von-der-blechdose-zur-carbonkanone?_x_tr_sl=de&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=de&_x_tr_pto=wapp

The tube rings each require an aluminum part that is screwed to the tube ring. It is used for stabilization and safety. The aluminum part is a piece of 6mm plate (94x12x6mm) in which 3 threads have to be drilled. For my Vixenstyle rail, an M6 thread is required in the middle and the 2 outer M5 threads have a distance of 82mm. These 2 threads are required to screw this aluminum plate to the tube ring.
You can optionally insert M5 nuts into the rings for additional accessories.
The rings also need a layer of 1mm thick foam rubber on the inside, on top of which I glued a layer of thin felt. Thus, the telescope is held softly but securely and the plastic rings can shrink a little in winter without breaking.

The end rings have neodymium magnets 6x3, these hold the dust cover or the dew cap.

 

Happy printing!
