Refracting Telescope
I joined a mailing list
ATM on Internet. They helped me so much that they sent a care package for me. One fellow ATM (Charles from
Australia) sent a focuser +eyepiece to me (care package is yet to reach me).
In the mean while One of my friend (Jaffer) found an optician who was willing to make a 4" objective.
Now i was armed with 4" objective, focuser and an eyepiece. I spent the whole night working on my Refracting telescope using a 5" diameter pvc pipe. In the morning I used it to look around. In the night my bubble of joy
busted as it was too heavy to hold without a mount to look at stars. 2ndly the 4" objective was not coated so it gave Chromatic aberration but I ignored them. Without a mount the only thing I could see was the moon.
