ATM Asaf's telescope report

[Asaf Shtull-Trauring <astropal@yahoo.com>]

Dear all,

Today I'm planning on finishing my scope. My parents gave me a day off
of school to finish my telescope (it's hard to believe...), and I've
just painted all my scope and I'm waiting for the pieces to dry. Then
I'll build the spider, and connect to it the Diagonal. I'll find the
correct placement and length of the spider (actually not spider, but
one rod), and connect it to the scope. I'll make sure the scope is
properly collimated, and leave it in my room at the side with a towel
over it.

I wont be able to use it until quite a long time, since my father
needs to order in the US, a 1.25" Meade eyepice, 16mm 4000 series. I'm
also buying a light-reducer for observing the moon, something
'polarizer'.

So, I'll just have to wait...
Thanks, Asaf.
