Jaegers 6" f/10 "GJD" OTA Construction - GSO 2" Crayford Focuser (Front)

 

GSO 2" Crayford Focuser for the Jaeger 6" f/10 GJD Refractor - Front - (Click to see an enlarged image.)

 

To bring the images from the Jaegers 6" f/10 "GJD" refractor to a point, I will be using a modified GSO 2" Crayford focuser. Modified, meaning that I took the draw tube from a Meade 80" APO focuser (which is was long) and replace the shorter one that came with the GSO. This will help by providing additional back-focus for astrophotography. The GSO is a smooth operating 10:1 dual-speed model that is of great build quality. This is a front view of the unit. It also comes with a 1.25" adapter.
