johninderby Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Perhaps this book would help.

Ill take a look at it. Are you able to smell the baader filter yet? Or is it still somewhere in between?😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johninderby Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) Not sure how good the book is but might at least give some ideas although it’s not a how to book.There os another book by the same author but it covers the building of a 10” newt binoscope not a refractor binoscope. Tracking is showing as “Order data transmitted electronically.” but no tracking info yet. Edited August 24, 2020 by johninderby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Drew Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) I think these are Helicoids, a system invented by Tatsuro Matsumoto. Two flat mirrors are arranged at precise angles to produce a 90 degree viewing angle with terrestrial orientation. 🙂 Edited August 24, 2020 by Peter Drew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
