Englische Version des Artikels "Das Baumarkt-Teleskop" 240.BLT

Construction kit for an astronomical lens telescope with 30x magnification, using inexpensive installation tubes from the hardware store.

The name is the agenda

In addition to first-class color-corrected lenses, a photo tripod adapter (item 258.FSR), a small pre-cut construction sheet and detailed assembly instructions, you will also receive a shopping list for your hardware store. You'll need a tube with a push-fit sleeve, a oversleeve, and a sleeve plug, as well as some skill, and your homemade telescope from the hardware store is ready to go.

Tracking the sky with Kepler optics

The DIY store telescope is a high-quality beginner's telescope, because for pocket money everyone gets the opportunity to explore the starry sky themselves like Galileo Galilei: Lunar craters, Jupiter's moons and much more.
As with all astronomical telescopes with Kepler optics, the image is upside down, but this is not a problem when observing the sky. For terrestrial observations, the image can be straightened with the zenith mirror. Possible stray light can be avoided with the inner aperture.

If you want to perfect your DIY telescope and are interested in technology, you can build an eyepiece focuser yourself with this tip from the community of "Make" magazine. You can find the instructions here.
