I have an edu-science SKN No. 891002 telescope that I need parts\r\nfor. How can I go about getting them? Carlos Hernandez, Jr. [email protected]

Astronomers don't care if the image is upside-down, or mirrored left to right.

You cannot-- get parts. The scope is sold by Toys R Us-- they do not service or sell parts.

Read my tips on my profile page.

Eyepieces come in 3 sizes -- .965, 1.25 and 2 inch sizes.

Measure the hole in the focuser and order the correct size.

Here are 2 retailers:

http://shop.telescope-warehouse.com/

No one sells parts for that scope which is imported and being sold by Toys R Us.

Sorry

Just buy a small photo tripod from any camera store.

Toys R Us who sell that scope, do not sell parts.

You can buy a PHOTO tripod from any camera shop or on-line.

This is sold by Toys R Us take it back to them. Parts and a manual are not available for this toy telescope.

You will not find a manual for this telescope. However Toys R Us sells this brand. The store may allow you to copy the manual which is inside the box of a new telescope.

We receive more complaints about this "toy" telescope than just about any other brand. Read this also:

and read my TIPS located on my profile page.

Contact Toys R Us, this is one of their telescope brands. Then never buy another "toy" telescope!

Several of the TIPS on my profile page may also help you.

You cannot buy parts for that small telescope. You can buy a finderscope but it will probably be more than you paid for the entire telescope. Look here:
