A 10" f/6 walnut scope with a Bob Royce mirror. I really liked this scope a lot, and if I could've kept just one, this would've been it.

The 11" f/5.5 I'm making this/next year will be patterned after this one:

The EQ platform I made a couple months ago. A chronicle of its construction can be found here:

...and lots, lots more I can't show here. I'd better stop before I get the permanent boot from Herb for chunking up his hard drive space.

I overhauled a couple entry-level dobs over the past couple years and posted photos here on this forum awhile back:

So Long and Introducing...

Posted By P. Lee Stock

Thanks Tom. A very friendly and helpful group this is. I know of some other ATM forums where tempers and egos are more common than they should be. Here it is much more diverse and laid back, not too optically focused (unless you really need that sort of thing), yet plenty of optical discussion as well. Best of all, the photos that go with the text of those participating. Love this forum.

Take care,

Lee

ATM Archive Returned!

Posted By P. Lee Stock

I think we should be worried about our own archive--I see no way of accessing anything other than searching for specific terms. I can only view back to August or so, and that's discouraging as there was some great older stuff I would love to just browse through. At least it's not deleted (or at least I don't think it is), just hard to access. Or am I just missing something here.
