I am just thinking, but as I compete my outstanding projects, I need to start a new project, because a telescope maker just isn't a telescope maker if he's not making telescopes!

Does anyone on the list have experience with building a telescope using a Ritchey Chretien design. Does anyone know anything about the hyperboloidal curves needed for the design or about literature relating to the design?

I am thinking of something in the 24 inch range
