| I am currently (and slowly) building a Dobsonian reflector telescope. The plan was to build an 8" f/6 reflector, but we got started on a 6" f/8 and so will probably complete that one first. Grinding the mirror is fun (so far) -- it's truly amazing that you can so accurately produce an optical surface by rubbing two pieces of glass together! There will be pictures here as soon as we make some more progress. Stay tuned! | |
