To Everyone, thank you. I have coming from a Magnablock.

Scopes - I meant it when I said I was going nuts! :willy_nilly: Have you ever over-researched something so intensely that you start to lose perspective, and really wander off onto tangents? I was thinking of things like - photography / can my kids use it? / Will my wife beat me? - stuff like that. I was literally moments away from buying a complete and new Omano system... I had my CC out and phone in hand, and I did one last eBay search for Meiji. I stumbled across a smoking good deal, so a clean Meiji is on the way. Worst case, I believe, is that it'll need a reducing Barlow. Some lighting, too.

I've got a homebrew stand in the works, and my station is coming along. It's going to be like Christmas here for the next couple of weeks!
