Almost perfect - Meade 12’’ LX200

It takes a little manipulation, but it will snap into the inner lip of the corrector plate. That aside - seems to do exactly as advertised.

Tri-Bahtinov Mask (TBM) for 8” SCT

Well … I’m glad you asked. I just tried to fit the TBM on my 8” Meade LX-200 GPS scope - and it doesn’t fit !! The central hole is several mm too small to fit over the secondary mirror assembly. To say that I’m disappointed would be an under-statement. Now all I have is a trendy wall-ornament … I hope that you are going to do to fix this issue - otherwise I will have to re-think purchasing from Telescopes Canada in the future.

Description

A Tri-Bahtinov mask operates under the same principle as the Bahtinov mask for focusing and adds the ability to collimate scopes with collimatable optics.  
The design is based on Cytan's idea, documented on his Github site here, and the sketch was made using Satoru Takagi's Mask Generator.
The mask has a raised center for an easy grip and comes in three sections that snap fit together and can be taken apart for easier storage (C5 is one piece, 14" and larger are 6 sections). 

If you don't see your scope listed below Buckeye will be happy to design a mask to meet your needs.

Instructions for Use:

**For Hyperstar versions, the center hole accommodates the Hyperstar, and will not go around cameras that are wider than the Hyperstar body.  In such cases the camera must be removed for installation and removal of the mask.

Printed in durable, temperature tolerant PETG filament.
