My nuwe projek - 8 Duim Dobsonian
So ek is besig om n 8 duim dobsonian aanmekaar te sit vir die diep donker areas waar my bakkie hom so nou en dan in bevind.
Die spider ...
Die Tube en die res van die parte. In goeie ATM Fashion is meeste van die parte uit tweedehandse material wat verniet verkry is.
Sal hopelik bietjie die naweek tyd kry om verder te karring....

Re: My nuwe projek - 8 Duim Dobsonian
Watse optics gebruik jy vir so 'n ding? Nogal 'n interesante projek!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

I'm dumb.
Are you building a telescope?
If so, will you be grinding the lenses yourself?

Re: My nuwe projek - 8 Duim Dobsonian
Jong ek kan na die buurvrou kyk aan die ander kant van die koppie so 2km weg...
Sy is net onderste bo...
So ek het die naweek bietjie die rocker box gebou en die optics begin vasplak.
8 Duim spieël op die mirror cell
Sekondere spieël op die spider vasgeplak
En gou n rou fitting gedoen
Die altitude bearings moet nog aan die pyp vas kom, en dan is dit strip en painting....

Re: My nuwe projek - 8 Duim Dobsonian
Dit is n astronomiese teleskoop. Ek het die 8 duim spieel self uitgegrind. My suster het vir my twee pyrex blanks van die states af gestuur. Dit was min of meer so twee hondered ure se werk. Geduld moet baie wees om so stukk glas in vorm te skuur.I'm dumb.
Are you building a telescope?
If so, will you be grinding the lenses yourself?
Die Astronomiese klub het my gehelp met die finale vorming van die spieel. Ek kon hom nie parabolies gekry het nie. Gelukkig is daar n paar ouens met dik brille en wit jasse....
Ek het die spieel al so 6 jaar in my kas en het net nooit by die bou gedeelte uitgekom nie.
Die fokuser is ook home made uit klomp stukkies aluminium uit en n paar bearings.

Re: My nuwe projek - 8 Duim Dobsonian
Ja, my pa het ook sy eie lense ge"grind", ook hulp gekry by die astro club. Hy was feitlik klaar toe wen hy 'n fancy teleskoop by een van die klub se goed wat baie beter is as sy eie.... Maar hy't aanhou bou.
dis nogals freaky as jy vir Saturnus kyk en die ringe kan sien en tussen die ring en die planeet deur kan sien...
Ek haal my hoed af vir die ouens wat die tyd en geduld het om daai lense te grind.

En uiteindelik is die projek ook klaar....
Nou moet ek net n cradle maak om die tube agter op die bakkie te sit.
