My Telescope

I built a 15" Dobsonian telescope. What makes this sort of interesting is that it collapses down so it will fit in the trunk of my Mazda Miata - and still have room for a passenger. So far, it is performing nicely. I am also proud of the scope winning an award for innovation at Astrofest 2002. The page follows work on the scope from the beginning and includes plans and sources of information and materials that I found helpful along the way.
