Pattern '18 objective (OG) lenses

[Peter Laidler]

I am just about to have some OG lenses made for the PPCo Pattern 18 telescope made. Anyone need one? To replace that old chipped and scratched one that you can't see out of perhaps...........

As per usual, they will be made in the UK......., no foreign rubbish here..... and to the exact spec as the originals too.

I do not need an objective lens but could shure do with an occular (eyepiece) set.

[Peter Laidler]

You should have asked when I had 10 sets made................

Would be interested , price dependent, for spares

[Peter Laidler]

The price has been calculated as £70 each for 10 Doublets of flint and crown to the exact optical prescription - and that's cheap. Will let you know when they're in. If it's too expensive that's not a problem as I'll have them anyway. But don't think that I'll have them forever. How's that for service

Pete
Put me down for a set. To save postage you can send them with Roger's and I'll pick up from him. Many thanks

Excellent. I'll have my parents pay you in puinds sterling and the lens can be mailed to their pad in Aberdeen.
Nice work Peter.
