That is a work of art. Beautiful. Did you design your own plans or acquire them from someone else. I ask because I’m thinking of building one of these.
very well done! if I might ask: what focal ratio did you choose for your 20″?
amazing!
Very interesting video.
inspirational!
THAT is way beyond sexy, thats porny!!! Great job!!!
Congratulations man! Awesome!
I am so envious! I am fascinated by astronomy and would love to build my own telescope with as much craftsmanship as yours. It is absolutely gorgeous!
Amazing work
You did an outstanding job on your 20-inch, I’m sure the views through it are even better when sky conditions are good. The craftsmanship is first rate. No NGC or IC object can hide from it under dark skies…….:-)
Just wow. It’s a work of art. May you get many years of pleasure from it.
amazing
That scope looks brilliant. Only downside is the need to use a ladder to look through it haha.
If you do not mind Peter Smith, I was wondering if you could share a list of parts in which the telescope was built with?
Wow! That’s a beauty! I would definitely use this video (and the blog of course!) as a guide to build my own one…your telescope looks exactly like my dream one! (I have almost everything ready for mine but, it’ll be smaller…”just” 12 inches)
Beautiful. Proper job!
Hi, Peter! Can I ask you – how did you mount the secondary mirror onto its base? By gluing it? If so – which type of glue you used?
That’s a beauty of a scope Peter!
Clear Skies! 🙂
Молодец!!!
hello Peter Smith very beautiful and neat his telescope, congratulations!
Beautiful job! And I have to say – the music was very interesting.
20 inches ? Nobody’s dick is that big. What kind of crazy porno flick is this ?
LOL haha … jokey joke.
I like your music on the video … just wish you had some versions with real time.
Hi Peter, Awesome Job.. i was wondering how good it would be showing planets and nebulas..i have a 12 inch…wouldyou mind sharing some pics of its observation?
Peter fantastic job. Question about the secondary cage. You seem to show some kind of sheet of wood forming the inner cylinder cage. What is that stuff? It seems awful thick to be regular veneer. Did you have to steam it to make the round cylinder?
Hola muy buenas tardes, pregunta, de casualidad no fabricas estos telescopios bajo pedido? para enviar a Miami / Florida?
Very nice
What a wonderful skill! Fantastic job, mate!
