Long focus Newtonian’s

Have these at home, I’ve only looked at the silver one closely (6”) . Whoever made it was a tradesman machinist or was it a kit? Parts on it date to c1960 or a bit before. The mount could be from a kit or published plans, anyone recognise it?
The other one is 8” wth the OTA at nearly 3 metres.
