Start your astronomy adventure by building your own high performance telescope!
 
This kit includes the optical components and fasteners/hardware and other bits to make the telescope, Alt Az mount and tripod. This does not include any of the 3D printed parts. This kit uses a premium quality parabolic primary mirror for the absolute best views of the moon, the planets, star clusters, galaxies and nebulae. The optics are very suitable for astrophotography when used on an equatorial mount (we can show you how to do that too). The kit includes:
 
150mm Primary Mirror- Parabolic
Secondary Mirror- 35mm Effective Diameter
Red Dot Finder (you will need a CR2032 "watch" battery)
1.25" Rack and Pinion All Metal Focuser
23mm Eyepiece, 62 degree Field of View
1.25" Laser Collimator
4 x 670mm Aluminum Extrusions (silver, can be upgraded to black)
Lots of nuts, screws, knobs, and tape to hold it all together
Teflon tape to enable buttery smooth motion
 
If you purchase this kit to build a Skyward 150 you will need to supply your own plastic pipes for the tripod (Home Depot or similar home building store will have them), and all the 3D printed parts. You will need access to a high quality 3D printer with 300mm x 300mm print bed and a good set of tools.
