Description

This is a printable telescope with very few parts that I'm making for my son as a Christmas gift. This is my first attempt to make a telescope, and I am really happy with the result. It works really well. And was easy to build and print. It has 2 different mounts, The telescope_mount is for a old tripod (seben EQ3) Second one is Vixen Style Dovetail.

Update 16.11.2019

I added a new piece to the telescope. Now you can mount a raspberry pi camera directly
on to the telescope instead of mirror end eyepiece. The new parts are:

  1. Camera Focus
  2. Topp_rpi
  3. Rack
  4. GT2 Timing Pulley 16 Tooth Bore 5mm (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32950478691.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4deq9xLw)
  5. 5mm Aluminum rod that is at least 100mm long

1.telescope_mount
2.vixen_mount

Hardware needed:
1- 114mm mirror with a secondary mirror
2- Focuser
3- M4-0.7 Threaded Heat Set Inserts
4- 400 x 14mm Carbon fiber rods
5- M4 screws
6- M4 nuts
7- Telescope eyepiece

Printed parts:
You need one of each piece, except the clips. You need 3 of them.

Total cost, not incl PLA was $69, you can of course, make your own focuser and save $25

You only need support for Telescope_mount

All tips are greatly appreciated!
