Tom's telescope making album starts with the first telescope he built, a 20" f/5 Newtonian on a composite fork mount, and ends with one of the largest private telescopes in the USA. This journey takes place over a 25 years span, and the six minute slide show should be very interesting to anyone interested in building his own telescope.

Enjoy the show. It should give you a small idea of what you will learn by reading The Modern Dobsonian.
