Protective cover for 10 to 12 inch Dobson TG-2D | Telegizmos

A 10 or 12-inch Dobson is too big to put in the house after each session, so it often sits in the garage, shed, or under a carport. With a cover over your 10-inch or 12-inch Dobson, dust, dirt, and moisture stay outside. The TG-2D from Telegizmos is made for that size.

An example of a 10 inch Dobson is the Skyliner 250P FlexTube. In a collapsible Dobson Can you shorten the tube, and that saves on the size you need.

First, see how you store your Dobson, upright or with the tube tilted, and measure the setup in that position. Only put the cover on when the telescope is dry, and take it off occasionally on a dry day so that no moisture remains trapped inside.

If your Dobson stays outside all year, then look at the T3-2D from the 365 series.
