One might say that: We are less than one percent of amateur astronomers of our country; We are now with what people of other times, when there was nothing prefabricated and ready to be purchased, and therefore it was necessary to “make a personal investment” study and practical application to progress in a new and exciting field; We are daredevils who bring into play all their skills without fear of hitting errors, moreover, we believe that always correctable…even in the worst situations…depending on us to know the remedy; We are people conscious that learn by making mistakes, but that working together you is wrong MINUS, and you learn BETTER and MORE, and much more other.

    Hi everyone,
    Eventually I found a little’ Time to register.
    My present, I am Lino and I found you through research on the Internet about how you can work a mirror.
    I thank Giulio who informed me on some basic points, with what to begin and from mirrors with diameters accessible to a neo scratcher like me.
    I have a daughter a year and I'd like to introduce to this passion, before seeing Dad to create his telescope, then over time build a new larger and more experienced.
    I'm currently looking for a glassworks in the area that cuts me two discs 250 mm spero re 20mm. As soon as the material recovery, between readings and advice that I will ask, I will start to this project.
    Thank you and I hope to grow as good “scratch glass”.
    I wish you a nice day.

      hello Lino. Here you are surrounded by people who have already successfully done that road not difficult but challenging, and can mconsigliarti on the basis of their knowledge.
      It just takes patience and study of basic technique, and then critical sudio of treasury shares by comparison of results derived with the expected theoretical, applicaqre to the right fixes.
      Welcome
      Giulio

      hello Lino, I too welcome, :bye:
      We also expect the forum , our “living room” for technical talks ( and not ), will definitely be interesting to share your project.
      See you soon, Maximum

    I find this an excellent site for astronomical things “practices” and truly useful for the amateur do-unlike others who, too often, as well as the astronomy magazines they show especially beautiful images made by photographers but then superbravi, in the end they do not add anything of knowledge beginner or average common all'astrofilo often besides dealing with astronomy with the other problems of everyday life to start looking cheap. Hop read with interest the article on the test with the Ronchi grating, truly comprehensive, I would have liked, however, to find himself on argoimento something that relates to the control of refracting lenses both in the precision of the workmanship that, above all, on the centering and alignment of both crown and flint lenses and also the interpretation of the game of the return light beams with Cheshire eyepieces with and without laser. Great anyway your site that I plan to visit more often. :bye:
    regards Joseph

      Hello Joseph!
      For my part, on behalf of the entire redazone, Thank you for your encouraging words.
      The fact is that in Italy the majority of people is oriented to the “Culture” It is intended solely as a philosophical and humanistic political order. That is absolutely not scientific, nor in its (too vulgar ..) Technical practical application.

      All this because every scientific approach risultarebbe too demanding, making it impossible to hide the poor objective reality which is instead always as gabellabile “important”, with dottine based on thought and not on proven facts.

      Because here we are many, obviously everyone condividenti and scientifically oriented, it is understandable that anyone interested, It has some practical guarantee of being able to do more, mistaken less:
      The Forum therefore is our strength, to help (with tips shared by all) those who wish to clear some ideas; or decide to face some challenging technical and practical ambitions.
      It is usually true that every contribution described in the experiences of those who accessed, It can provide new certainty and encouragement to those who are interested, among those who read.
      So much so that despite our position of extreme technological niche, moreover, it is very very local “locale” Italy and the Italian language in the world, record regularly over time, Worldwide over one hundred visits a day.

      then Benenuto!
      Ciao – Giulio
