Yeah this is my print from last year. The funny thing was I never knew the moon just doesn't come up at night for weeks straight until I built it. I had to wait a bit to catch it.
Can't wait for Jupiter and Saturn to pop back up this year.

Not to bad actually. There's a pretty detailed guide https://www.printables.com/model/224383-astronomical-telescope-hadley-an-easy-assembly-hig
Hardest part was learning how to colminate the mirrors so everything is perfectly aligned. It took a few days of printing.
Really well actually. I printed this last year and I haven't had to fiddle with it since.
It's a Hadley 114 telescope. https://www.printables.com/model/224383-astronomical-telescope-hadley-an-easy-assembly-hig
If you have the cash bamboos are 100% worth the upgrade. I've printed more on my carbon in 6 months then I have on my other machines in 3 years.
The speed is amazing but the reliability is what really makes it shine. Being able to press to on a 24 hour print and knowing that it'll come out flawless has been such a time changer.
