Thanks Rod.
I had read that for the larger grit I could do it outside, it might be a possibility. I'll need to see what sort of table set up I come up with first and how portable it is although I do like the idead of a rotating bench.
I do have a sharpening stone we don't use I can sacrifice and a couple of files for beveling edges, I might have to get the big tiles in the end but I'll have a bit more of a look for the ones on a sheet first.
F/6 and f/8 is where I'm at right now and I'm leaning towards F/6 as I think I want a portable break down type of dob, nothing so ultra portable that it will fit in your hand luggage but like you said something that can fit in the car and still leave room for a few other things, or I could just get a bigger car.
My progress might be slow at firs while I gather up the remaining materials I need but I think once I'm underway the thread will move along a bit quicker.
