Hi Steve
Kelly does not own or has anything to do with this site, never has, never will.
I wrote the above.
I don’t care much for the Rubylith. It is very ease to damage as I said mine lasted less then a year.

Your website is confusing, Kelly. Did you post the following comment?

“I have been using the Rubylith® RM3 is a high-tack ruby film coated onto 300-gauge polyester.
For some time now and I can not recommend it.
This type Rubylith does not hold up very well…
Very easy to scratch and tear, mine last less then a year!

I would go to Sloan’s Woodshop
And get a couple of the Acrylic Sheets of the Transparent Colors #911 or the #997
These are what I have been using on my Laptops and they are GREAT!”

I just purchased 5 sheets and now I find you no longer recommend it? What gives? The sentence construction on the website as you can see is odd so I’m hoping that this is a misunderstanding or that your site got hacked.

Hay Mike

I still have that case.
Larry (from the club) has 2 of them and loves them.
I need to pick up another one my is getting pretty full.
For me it is the best bang for the buck.

Hi, Russ

I am looking at eyepiece case options myself and found your article. Home Depot sells a case similar to yours for $20, but it lacks the foam inserts. Lowe’s still carries what looks like exactly your model, for about $28. Walmart carries what they call a pistol case for about $30, with lots of foam inserted.

Are you still happy with your eyecase? Or have you moved on to something else?

I’ll give the Dark Adapted when I get back in town. Hopefully
I’ll get to set-up the scope at home either Friday or Sat for awhile depending when my flight gets in.

Glad you got the “green” lite. Don’t shine it at airplanes
- HA!! Thanks for info on the cases, I’ll go look for one
or two.

By the way, ngc 6144 - it lies just North of Antares and
just right of M4. It’s a 10th mag. so you should be able
to see it fine - RA 16 h 27.3 min, Dec -26 degrees .02 min.

Hey Russ, I’ve been looking all over for a nice EP case, thanks for the tip on Lowes.
