I’m really interested in making and assembling my own telescope but I find it difficult to look for materials and a simple step by step procedure. I tried to surf the net but I found telescopes that are so hard to make and with so expensive materials. I hope you can give me simple guidelines or tips on how to make one. Thanks in advance.
