Lurie-Houghton Raw Aluminum Tube
on Losmandy Equatorial Mount

PHOTO: Raw Aluminum Tube on Losmandy 
Equatorial Mount
I bought 12" tube rings from Parallax Instruments and a 19" dovetail plate from Losmandy to mount the telescope to my Losmandy G-11 equatorial mount. Here you can see the tube on the mount for the first time. There are no optics yet, but I wanted to get an idea what it's going to look like on the mount. This photo was taken 30 November 1999 with an Olympus D-600L digital camera.
