Cellular Mirror Availability

Posted By Bill Byrd
[COLOR="Purple"]Add Lookinglass Optical to the list of cellular makers.

Also, I had a reply from the seller on that big auction site; he makes them himself. I'll ask if any are in use or if is this his first.

I didn't get so much as a Thank-You from my wife.

Joe, you have a very advanced case of GAS...Gear Acquisition Syndrome. The cure is to send me the FRC-300 and mount. That should help you begin to overcome this affliction. I'd do this for a fellow Astromart buddy in obvious pain. wink Let me know if I can help.

[COLOR="Purple"]Nice Jim! I'll have to give this one a try visually.

Looks like another "faint fuzzy" down at the bottom of the frame too.
Thanks for sharing,

Re: Observing Chair

Posted By Bill Byrd
[COLOR="Purple"]Great job Mike! I made one of the chairs from the kit Jim Fly sells. It turned out great but doesn't have a nice detail like your rosette. That turned out nice.

Floyd: What kind of chair are you having made?

Little Turtle...

Posted By Bill Byrd
[COLOR="Purple"]I like this picture Kurt! He's all buttoned up but seems to have an attitude, even though he's small. Nice pic of the snake too. I haven't been to McKinney Falls SP in many years. Guess I should make a trip just to see some wildlife.
