This is a design for a Dobsonian reflector telescope, the primary mirror has a diameter of 114mm (4,5'') with the focal point at 900mm.
I managed to get the primary mirror and secondary mirror for free, all the rest of the materials are low budget or 3D printed.
To get a rough kind of tracking while looking at a cetain object, I designed a Alt-azimuthal mount which I can move with the use of a joystick and a system of nema17 steppermotors.
WARNING:
This is still a work in progress, I am
