I've been wondering for a long time if I might be able to stick fridge magnets to the Celestron telescope tube, to hold notes in place, whatever. I had packed a thin magnet in with my gear to test. In fact, I had flopped it into the triangular accessory tray (which is clearly magnetic). Tried the SCT 8" diameter optical tube: nothing. Interesting.§
If I'm not mistaken, Celestron made the tube out of aluminium.
