Great job with the 3D printing! Looks amazing! But do you worry about thermal expansion throwing off the mirror alignment? Also, I think I would use epoxy instead of hot glue to hold the mirrors in place. Very expensive if the hot glue should give out.
Beautiful job! You did it because you can, I get that. I'm a search the clasifieds treasure hunter myself but I thoroughly enjoyed your video. So impressed to see those excellent real eyepiece images too not layered computer images. A testament to the outstanding precision of your build! Nice!
@@alanwatts8239 i was told a minimum of 8 inches aka 200mm is a starting point for a Newtonian style telescope for planets. but I'm not an expert either, so maybe the 150mm could?
@@patprop74 A 150mm is the bare minimum for observing nebulae and planets with details, you can see saturn and the rings, you just won't see it close like you would in a cassini picture. It also helps to observe when it's cold outside, in a high place and away from bright lights.
@@alanwatts8239 indeed, I'm in Canada so by the time I get mine started and finish lol Trust me it will be cold haha I am however doing it on a very tight budget and I'm reduced to try to make with China-made D203F800 glass set for all i know i might not even be able to see the moon much less a nebulae loll But nonetheless will be fun to make.
Very nice project. You get really nice pictures of the planets with your telescope. It has been a little over two years since you posted so I hope you built a motorized mount with an arduino controller for your mount. Back in the seventies, I lived in Marbella for many years. Back when it was a sleepy little village. Now, it is a big, fast paced city that does not look very friendly anymore.
Very sadly you obviously won't share your 3D printer files with the community ... why? And some advice: NEVER would use HOT GLUE to glue the mirrors with your parts. NEVER EVER give optical glass such a stress with temperture!!! This could seriously damage and minder the quality of your mirror. Use small drops of silicone instead.

Hi, If anyone is interested, I published a book called "Making Technique for Large Diameter Concave Mirror, Convex Mirror, and Thin-Sided Lens" on Rakuten Kobo E-Book platform. In the book, molding silicone, clear epoxy (or clear plastic resin), polyurethane, air pumping tool, air vacuum tool, wood chips, mirror spray, acetate paper, etc. I mentioned the methods that will allow you to produce meters of diameter using. In this way, you will have the knowledge and experience that you can carry out your projects for astronomy and solar energy in a practical way. Have a nice day.

Very nice collapsible scope. But if you're going to buy commercial optics, you may as well buy a scope. The real advantage to building a scope is making higher quality optics than are available commercially.
How to make the most powerful "portable" telescope at home? Maximum length should not cross 6 feet - Maximum times optical zoom that can be obtained at this length (pushed to the limit/threshold) - A video guide of this kind would be very much awaited many for sure!
This is not a DIY project. Most of the parts are telescope parts and pieces. A high-end 3D printer making graphite parts. Just order a telescope it's much easier and cheaper.
hi! what are the specifications of lens/laser , diameter for the telescope body, list of the stuffs used, etc? im creating this for my science project, and i need the specifications. Thankyou so much!
That's cool, now attach several dozen sugar rocket engines made with powdered sugar and potasium nitrate fertilizer and ignite them once the weather balloons carry assembly to the top of the atmosphere...
I just built a collapsible dobson, 203mm, 5kg, transportable in a little bag. It was a nightmare to concieve it, it is not very sophisticated, assembling is quite complex (construction imprecisions sometimes make it hard), stability and precision are not excellent, mirrors are cheap chinese, but I am satisfied, Even though I have no car, I can leave the city with it to make nice observations.
Pro tip, dont aim it at the sun. Because you will burn your lenses. Thats just a tip for people watching. I know from a experience my friend built a similiar telescope and we just for fun aimed it at the sun and in like 5 minutes it was smoking :D
The prime mirror and the secondary is one of the most expensive, but if you want to take good photo you need a stand (Goto stand) which will cost more than all the telescope...
Awesome project! How big is your 3d printer? I made the same kind of telescope 12 years ago. Almost exactly the same design. I wanted to build one again after seeing this. But my 3d printer is too small to print the secondary mirror frame.
Would have been useful to list the 3d printer used, filament consumed, printer template, link to where the mirror can be purchased and price of all of the above
really awesome and impressive do it yourself telescope, awesome !! it would be nice if you still make the same telescope but bigger, like 8 "or 10" or then you make 6 "or 8" full tube telescope.
DIY = All spare part / Material is Very Easy To Find At Home And Every Where = Cheap .... 3D Printer Is Expensive .... And We Can't Find In Every Home ...
How would you modify your telescope, I'm using the Fistscope Telescope? I don't know CAD software, I'm just a beginner in programming and robotics. Also, I don't have a 3d printer.
mahmoud fatthy little bit expensive... with 1000 pounds that u pay on the 12 inch mirror u buy a fully equipped 12 inch dobson telescope and still have money for a good eyepiece

"Make at home" if you have 3D printer and a workshop at your home...
Иван Попов u can make without a printer, just need some basic tools. What were you expecting to make one with spatula and egg beater?
Иван Попов 😂😂😂😂
Made my first dobsonian about 30 years ago with a jig saw and some plywood.
Иван Попов I do have a 3d printer 😁😁😁

Good luck with that main mirror held by hot glue lol
Doesn t matter anyways there is no way a six-inch can see Saturn like the why he shown it.

THX for clearification about the real channel "Experimentar En Casa" ;-)
your video is very limited, no verbal description, no list for equipment yet so long
STFU
no stfu, its true, we dont have the 3d printer files, the mirrors used and the equipment, idk why
The original video name is "Como Hacer un Potente Telescopio Casero - (Experimentar En Casa)"
this is a spanish channel, they have to take the spanish out for you english viewers
Please tell required things
And where do I get that
And lens size also please
Fantastic. What about some plans and materials list?

If you want to find out hardly anything about how to make a telescope , I can recommend this video.
I would LOVE to have this telescope!
now i gotta see the tutorial of making those instruments you used to make that telescope.
Ofcourse absolutely we have 3d printer at our homes all of us great job. This project %100 applicable in home. 👏🏼

Rebuild another telescope with a music to sleep, good luck
don't know about all the negative comments. The video does inspire lot of ideas.
amazing ! if you use a bigger diameter tube and mirror would the end result be better ? is it doable within a reasonable budget ?
"DIY"....sure, let me just shuffle over to my gazillion-dollar workshop.
Excellent build, shame the top comment thumbs up is a negative one, you don't deserve that
thank you very much and welcome to kerala india gods own country i will try to make it really i want thank you very much again for your mind
Well done bro. Amazing job.
thanks i will surely make it❤❤👌👌
Beautiful scope and clever collapsing design fot portability. Just nervous to use hot glue for the main mirror.
What model of 3D printer are you using and if you could share the link for mirrors and other parts (where to get them ?)
And thus, a legend was born

Hi,thanks for your favourite video,I have a question,if there is a little or no concave mirroring point there will be no problem?
Very Good....Muito bom...Professional Assembly..Congratulations..Montagem profissional...Parabéns,,,
When you have 3d printers, you can do anything
when you said "at home" I believed you! 😭
What did you expect? You can't build this using random items found in your house, lol.
Which camera did you used to click the photo?
wonderful
So far that we can only Dee the moon so big at the telescope🤣🤣
The song is extremely soothing. But you're supposed to grind your own mirror!
Good work-ship and the final result. However the eyepiece fabrication is not shown in detail. Does the eyepiece have a convex/concave lens?
Great work!
really like your work :) very nice and clean even look nice then those branded manufacture thumb up
This costs atleast 225$
For this we can buy a 130mm telescope. But anyway wemust appreciate his effort snd skills. Well done.
Very good work
Right went he extended the damn thing..I was like nope. I have bills xD
May I know how much does it cost?. We decided to do it as project

Amazing work, this looks really great!
Can I see the entire messier catalog
Super bro
It was concave mirror or convex inside ?
if we increase the diameter of the primary mirror will we get a more sharper image?
and where can i get these parts?
Is the objective mirror parabolic/concave or just a plain mirror?
Concave. You can buy the set of those 2.
Good video is fantástic
