Optimizations and modifications to a SkyWatcher Maksutov 127mm

Excerpt from the report:

"I keep reading about the good optical properties of this Maks. While searching for a portable device, the idea of testing it myself came up. Naturally, I also wanted to know how the device was constructed – the "Chinese solution" is notorious. Surprisingly, there was little information about it online. Finally, I found two reports on optimizations that served as inspiration and a model for me. My sincere thanks go to Wolfgang Höhle and his astro website (http://www.tbrumm.de) and Norbert (alias NGC_2024 at A.de). Their ideas provided the groundwork, explained everything important, and convinced me to try it myself. Here is my report on the reconstruction."
