Seemed easy enough with the instructions to put together. The one thing I failed to realize (and I didn't see it mentioned anywhere as I researched the telescope equipment I bought) was that I needed the 1/4-20 adapter to mount the scope to the tripod. Therefore, I had to wait another week for it to be delivered.......I caulk it up to a beginners ignorance of all the essential parts needed to get started in sky-watching.
