Stuff Coming |
A prototype is under construction for an 8" f/8 open Surrier truss
tube Newtonian. This telescope will embody all of my latest design ideas
about high-performance reflectors that will challenge any refractor. The
telescope will appear first as a home building project and possibly later
as a high-end fully finished OTA. Also appearing this year will be the 12.5" f/20 D-K. This is also an open Surrier truss tube design. A second run of 10" closed tube D-Ks are also planned. Inquiries are welcome but pricing and delivery date is uncertain at this time. |

Parabolic
mirrors for Newtonian telescopes.
Compound reflective optical systems including Cassegrain, Ritchey-Chretien, Dall-Kirkham and various modifications. Refractive systems including achromatic and apochromatic objectives and full aperture corrector catadioptric systems including Schmidt, Maksutov and Houghton types along with near focal corrector systems. Both standard full-thickness and conical cross-section mirrors for Newtonian and compound systems. Articles for the amateur about telescope design, construction and use. |
New product for both amateur astronomers and professionals.
The conical cross-section mirror has arrived for Newtonians. Light in weight but no compromise in wavefront accuracy. - And no flotation cell required. Mounting is simplicity itself. The first real advance in lightweight larger aperture Newtonian telescopes. Details inside!
