A couple of months ago I brought my ‘work in progress’ scope along to an introducing astronomy night.
I’ve had to teach myself anodising to finish it, I’m quite pleased with it, although I’m going to have to do some more tuning of the speed reducer – the ball bearings are causing the grooved stainless steel rod to distort making it go loose. I have a plan but it means making or finding a specially shaped grindstone.
Expect cloud for along time…
