Start your astronomy adventure by building your own high performance telescope!
 
 
This kit includes the optical components for the OTA that cannot be printed. For budgetary reasons this kit uses a very good primary mirror with a spherical concave profile that will give you great views of the moon, the planets, star clusters, galaxies and nebulae. Our users say it's about 85% the quality of our more expensive parabolic mirror. If you're unsure you can always upgrade to a parabolic mirror later! The kit includes:
 
150mm Primary Mirror- Spherical
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
 
If you purchase this kit to build a Skyward 150 you will need to supply your own fasteners, aluminum extrusions, plastic pipes for the tripod, teflon tape, all the 3D printed parts and some other miscellaneous items you can see in the build guide. You will need access to a high quality 3D printer with 300mm x 300mm print bed and a good set of tools.
