Subject: eyepieces and diagonals
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

This is sort of marginally on topic. I am building a pair of 4" Newt
binoculars and have all components except for two matched 40mm 1.25"
eyepieces and two matched star diagonals. I want to use the diags instead
of builging a rig with separate mirrors to gain some construction
efficiency and to make eyepiece positioning easier. I need the 40mm's to
keep the mag down as I am using negative lenses to extend the fl. 40mm
should give a mag of around 23-24x which is as high as I want to go. 

Anyway, if anyone knows of a good source for such items - or has some lying
around :) - for a good price, I need to find them fast if I am going to
have this thing done for RTMC. 

Thanks!
