Hello everybody,
Here is undoubtly the most advanced kit available for ATM'ers and people who want to make easily their own scope !
All pieces in birch plywood are precisely cut with CNC machines, and can be easily put together without special tools. All holes are pre-drilled for easy assembly.
The kit includes all necessary bolds, nuts, screws, as well as the laser cut alumium pieces for the mirror cell and spider.
All together there are more than 400 pieces in this kit.
It includes also 8 carbon truss tubes, 22 mm diameter, pre-cut at the right length and a Moonlite CR2 focuser (Starlight focuser available on demand).
The Construction Manual is fully detailled, 80 pages with 200 pictures.
You do not need any machine, you will not make any dust, and you can make it in your own living room !
As well as all the telescope we have produced during the last 12 years, you will get a top quality instrument, with great strength, rigidity and stability, easy to move and use.
Obviously you can finetune it according to your wishes, make any necessary ads on, or special coating or painting as you wish.
This will be YOUR SCOPE ! You made it !
The full kit without optics costs 3100 € plus shipping costs.
You can get optics from Mirrosphere, a renowned French optics maker, or John Nichol in the UK, Alluna in Germany, or Lockwood or Lightholder in the US or any of your preferred optician.
Obviously, we can provide a full assembled and tested instrument, ready to use. Contact us for that.
The kits are available for 12, 16, 20 and 24" size.
