Hi All,

I have been looking at various plans on the web for a DIY Dobson and was wondering if anyone here can recommend a site or set of plans that they have used that would be suitable for a novice telescope builder?

I am happy to buy books and plans etc but would prefer to have a recommendation first - sometimes what you get over the net falls short on quality!

I am a reasonably competent DIY type with good woodworking and metalworking skills but new to Astronomy.

Also does anyone know if there is a Sydney group for telescope builders similar the to Victorian one?

Thanks

Brendan
