3.The Dobsonian Telescope: A Practical Manual for Building Large Aperture TelescopesThe Dobsonian Telescope: A Practical Manual for Building Large Aperture Telescopes
from Willmann-Bell

Customer Review:
Even though I ended up making a solid tube, I bought this from Mr. Kreige with the expectation that I would end up with a truss setup for my 16". The book is well laid out and the instructions are clear. However, they are also not very simple and it's not just a matter of throwing a bunch of stuff... more info

from Princeton University Press
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:
I would second another reviewers comment that this is a very politically correct view of what has been going on with Hubble and NASA generally. Written for a beginner. There are hints of the trouble within the agency. But the author is leaving the door open for further access by writing an upbeat... more info

6.[no image]Build Your Own Telescope
from Willmann-Bell

Customer Review:
Although the book's helpful for learning how telescopes work and how they're made, the real purpose of the book is to show how to make five telescopes.

from Springer
Price: $34.23

Customer Review:

Every topic is only touched upon, in most cases, in a couple of pages maximum, giving only... more info

8.[no image]Standard Handbook for Telescope Making
from Harpercollins

Customer Review:
When I got into making my 16" mirror in the 80's, though I had the book by Allyn J. Thompson, I wanted something more up to date. I'd thought of the Jean Texereau book but was scared away by the math (I've since learned it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be). So, I saw this book in Willmann Bell... more info
