The Ingredients:
- an 6x30 finderscope
- a seemingly useless 90-degree Amici roof prism from the Celestron Astromaster 70AZ
- 35mm film can (...the 1.25" eyepiece barrel)
- 1 in. Copper Pipe "Cup x Cup" Coupling (...the optical tube)
- superglue, electrical tape, Tamiya XF-1 flat black model paint

**Next Project: a new bracket to accommodate the shortened optical tube.
