Greg Babcock presents his new 20'' f/3.55 scope

It is a beautiful scope meant to be easily transported

At f/3.55 no ladder is needed to view at zenith

This is my 18'' f/4.19 scope. First ATM project! Outstanding mirror is from Carl Zambuto.

Bearings are made of plywood, mirror cell is aluminum and upper cage is carbon fiber.

Scope has full tracking capability with Servocat/Argonavis. Mel Bartels taking notes (at right in this picture)

Dan Gray's 14'' scope. It is moved by an array of rare earth magnets

It can rotate amazingly fast (up to 50 degree/s) and gets back to initial position when kicked

Walkabout was very interesting!

Everything fits! Scope takes about 2/3 of the trunk. Poles are on the ski rack.
