Amateur Telescope Making Resources Below!
The ATM Page is intended as a resource for both beginning and advanced Amateur Telescope Making. ATMs are, at once, optical engineers, machinists, woodworkers, electrical engineers, programmers, and a few other more obscure callings. There is really no way to capture the full depth and breadth of the hobby in just one place. What I strive to collect here is unique tricks, hints, other people's scopes and ideas, etc.
These pages include both Microsoft and Netscape extensions to the HTML standards. They have been tested with Netscape Navigator 3.0 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 & 4.0. They are best viewed with one of these browsers. Everything except the JavaScript sections should work well with earlier versions of either.
Also, if possible, set your graphics card for at least 15/16
bit (32k or 64k colors). To paraphrase an old Crayola crayon ad, "The
world isn't just 16 colors..."
