I'm a member of a woodworking forum and another member there just posted a woodworking project of building a 10" wooden tube Newtonian.
I suggested that he post the result to IceInSpace. He's not a member here but did give me permission to post some WIP photos .
You can follow the original thread
here. I think you have to be a member to see the photos though.
Edit: All of the photos of the build are also
here.
