[ATM] Favorite ATM "booklist".

["John Moore" <jamooretx@web.com>]

Hi All!,

hope all your "Glass-pushing-projects" are going well!,,

I was just curiouse about your favorite;
"ATM booklist"

heres mine;

1."How I did-it" by;Texereau.,,,oooppsss,, sorry,,a little humor there,,
 
Correction;
1."How to make a telescope" by; Texerau.
Reason;considered by some, as the bible of ATM'ing, its very-technical for the weak-of-heart,
and "math-challenged", but has very-good points and shop-practices,very-detailed from "cover-to-cover",
A Great starting-point for any beginner!, Highly recommended!
2."Standard Handbook of Telescope making" by;Howard.
Reason;My first ATM book!, and the One I consider the most thorough! in helping the "first-timer"
to making a "Miror", and the complete scope, from start-to-finish!,,Has Excellant tips for grinding
and "2-chapters alone!" for "Polishing",,I cant recommend this book highly enough!!, saved me hours!
ok,,some of the work is outdated, but most of the Great Tips! in this work,are timeless!!,,
If I could only own "1-book", this would be it!!
3."ATM"book-1. by:Ingles.[new-updated version]. Lots of good stuff here!!,old and dated,,but most
pages still-apply!, This book will get your creative juices flowing!!,Grab this book, and a cup-of-coco,
on a rainy-day, and curl-up by the fireplace!, and enjoy!!

and of course;
"This List!!",, not a book,,, but hey,, this is my post, so I can cheat!!

[The above is my oppinion, and my opinion-only!], take as you wish.

John.
