Amateur Telescope Making Bewertungen

From the reviews
... Stephen Tonkin (has) added a worthy contribution to the collective wisdom of amateur astronomy ....
SKY & TELESCOPE

SKY & TELESCOPE
...Tonkin has assembled a potpourri of excellent do-it-yourself projects, ranging from small refractors and simple rich-field telescopes to large instruments with tilted-component optics and a high-performance, home-built, computer-controlled telescope...will appeal strongly to mid-level amateur astronomers, whether they are equipment buyers or builders. Novices should find much to marvel at, and advanced amateurs will appreciate the useful and timely insights into the current technology of telescopes and sensors...[a] worthy addition to the ever-growing literature of telescopes and telescope making.

REVIEWS OF ASTRONOMICAL TOOLS
The book is a nice collection of interesting ideas on telescopes and accessories for the do-it-yourself astronomer.

NEW SCIENTIST
For advice on how to get going, look no further than two excellent books - AMATEUR TELESCOPE MAKING and ASTRONOMICAL EQUIPMENT FOR AMATEURS...Highly recommended.
