Telescope

The course, to build your own 200mm reflector, was run over an eight week period but, believe me, it took much longer than that to complete!

- Primary mirror
- First light
… and finally
Having been through all that, I really find that I’m much more of an armchair astronomer than a practical one, so now have the scope up for sale to anyone interested. Sydney mobile: 0413 668535
