Chuck is being just a wee bit modest. All of the incredible work that went into the tube is all thanks to Chuck. It's just too bad we ended up being forced to go with other optics which meant we could not use the tube. MNore pictures of the tube and it's fabrication here: http://www.trilobyte.net/paw/slas/BIGSCOPEA.HTML http://www.trilobyte.net/paw/slas/BIGSCOPEB.HTML Patrick Chuck Hards wrote:
I posted a photo from my archives on page 4 of my Gallery pages. It shows the big composite tube for the Grim telescope that was never used, being loaded on a trailer for transport to SPOC. At the time it was still planned to be used. I think now it's being used as low-income housing for the city of Herriman, or as a culvert on a cattle ranch. ;)
