Hi all!

Several years back, I brought my 6" F4.5 airline carry-on Dobsonian to 
Stellafane.  It was also featured in an ATMoB newsletter.  People really 
liked it, and a few asked if I would be selling them.  At the time, I 
said no.  Now, after gaining knowledge in CNC routing technology, I can 
say yes.  My company, Inspiration Toolworks LLC is offering them for sale.

See here for the telescope:

and the kit version:

The kit version needs some work in the form of written directions, but I 
will be writing those up before delivering a kit.  Also, for people in 
the area, I'd be happy to deliver a kit and go over the details if 
anyone is interested.

Also, I have drawings of the original version available.  If you want to 
try to make one on your own, go for it!  See:

I will be bringing the telescope to November's ATMoB meeting for show 
and tell.

I welcome questions or comments.

Thanks!
