StellaLyra Dobsonian Telescope Setup & Complete Overview: Step-by-Step Guide

[@Darren-vh5lk]

Nice video... exactly the scope I am looking to buy

[@Royston1860]

So darn glad I watched this, I was going mental looking for that screw holding the viewfinder🤔. Just bought the 6" from FLO and thought it odd there was one screw but 2 screw holes. Your video helped immensely so I stopped my frantic search. But, how hard is it to clean the mirror? I looked into the tube and saw smearing around the edges.

I have the same scope Chris but I must admit I use my 8"dob more.i took my eyepiece holder of as one night I tried to move the scope with gloves on and stripped the threads on the holder.the 8" is a skywatcher but I will invest in a lazy Susan like the sella lyra.clear skies Vic

[@Tuffjobs]

I guess you can’t use this sitting down? Standing only?

[@walterkaiyuenpang3556]

Funny that, i came across this ,but then didn't finish watching it as i was looking at the Sky watcher 250p instead ! Then after a day, i actually searched for the Stella Lyra and i ended up HERE again !!! 😂😂😂

No reason to watch for lackluster equipped SkyWatcher: Dual speed focuser, entry level 2" wide view eyepiece and neck saving RACI finder scope are worth like £200 over SkyWatcher.

@tuunaes BINGO !!! StellaLyra 10 inch Dobs it is ... 😂👍✊

[@Astronurd]

Branching out Chris?

[@firstlightoptics1903]

Grant asked if I could make a video about putting the Dobs together, and as a perk I'll be enjoying the views for a while :) I've already had nice views of Saturn, the ring nebulae and Andromeda with M110 off to one side.

Thanks for the video, i would love to get a Dob Telescope, but I'm next to useless at DIY

[@firstlightoptics1903]

Hi Richard, I'm sure you would be fine if you follow the video as you go :)

[@dumpydalekobservatory]

Crikey mate talk about putting it together in a tight space lol, mind you I would think you've had plenty of practice putting them together at the IAS.

[@firstlightoptics1903]

lol Yeah, It's a good job I didn't borrow a 12"!

[@VickiAnkney]

You mean to tell me that a 10 inch scope doesn't have a 2 speed focuser. I wouldn't own it

[@firstlightoptics1903]

? But it does have a 2 speed focuser, which is unlike the Sky-Watcher/Bresser/Celestron 10" Dobsonians which are single speed.
