Photos of my new Pelican 1500 case for my TV76. These links take you to =
annotated flickr pages...

http://fboyd.org/866663671/ <--Case closed

http://fboyd.org/866663685/ <--Inside showing everything

The case is great although a bit heavy. My bathroom scale says 18 pounds =
when loaded. On the other hand i'm sure i could drop this off the back =
of my truck on a dirt road and the TV76 wouldn't even notice!

Nice.

What sort of mount do you use?

What are those eyepieces?

Thanks.

Florian appears to be really interested in guns, stuffed animals, hiking
alone (bad form), and unisex bathrooms (umm, can anyone say "odd"?). Oh,
and he thinks the Earth is expanding, yet can't for the life of him figure
out where the extra mass is coming from. He expects someone else to figure
it out for him.

Hi George,

I was at the grand opening of the Outdoor World store in Rancho =
Cucamonga, Calif, on Saturday. They had a lot of guns. I'm not really a =
gun person but they don't bother me. Not sure about your Earth is =
expanding comment. Thanks for your interest!

George appears to be really interested in Florian.

As for unisex bathrooms, I don't like to share my bathroom with anyone,
and can hardly think of anything more disgusting than sharing a
bathroom with a /woman/ . I have my bathroom, my wife has hers. We meet
elsewhere, so to speak.
