Hi Asaf
I think buliding a binointerferometer is quite a task, personally I think
beyond the capabillity of a single amateur. You have to know the seperation
of your scopes in the order of an wavelenght and it has to remain stable.
Thats why even pros have high difficulties to make optical
interferometers...
