Thanks Dave, I'd love to see the article, but don't put yourself out too much on taking shots. Only if it's really easy and you've got the time.

A nice 4 page spread. I could probably take a few shots of the article with my digital camera and post them on my website if you're interested.

Thanks Chuck. When we moved, we tossed a lot of old S&T's. I'm sure we don't have that old issue. Was that Gary Seronik's little travel truss Dob by any chance? Michael

Michael, for my idea of the "perfect" small Dob, see S&T, March '99, Telescope Techniques dept. The 10" version is in the works.

IMHO, all the commercial Dobs are about the same. Use a few at star parties this spring, then order the model that you liked using the most.
