Re: Intermediate ATM project [book ?'s]

[Brand <huntb@ucs.orst.edu>]

Does anybody have any suggestions on a book that has info on making a 
Maksutov. My goal is to one day make one, but don't know how much more 
practice I need, before starting a long project like it.
To those that have made one, did you make the correcting plate, or 
purchase one?

Thanks,
Brand
