$49 UPS Ground shipping for Telescopes
Due to their size and bulk, or the need for extra packing, we are not able to offer free shipping on some Telescopes and Mounts, but offer a steep discount off the actual cost.
Description
Our longer, heavier 4" scopes are best matched to the rock-solid Gibraltar HD4 mount. The large bearing surfaces and thick wood legs best handle the loads, especially for high power viewing.
Leg extensions raise the altitude axis to 5-feet, still ideally sized for use with our Air-Chair observing stool. Scale on leg extensions allows repeatable setting to desired height. A wood accessory tray ties the legs together for rigidity. Built-in pier allows for high-altitude viewing. A bubble-level is integrated into the tripod base. Metal ground spikes with rubber tips are provided. Object locating capability with optional encoders.
