Hello everyone,
I am in the beginning stages (research) of making a large aperture Newt. The question I have is.... Can you buy a primary mirror cell or is this something you have to make? If you can buy them, where would I look?

Thanks,
Jay

Hi Jay:

Try Astro Sky at: http://astrosky.homestead.com/AstroSkyTrussDobsonian.html

They are an Astromart sponsor.

I have a 16 inch 18 point cell from Astro Sky and it is very well designed and constructed. James (the proprietor) also sells dob kits and structures (as well as complete scopes) at a very competative cost.
