I purchased an 18" wooden tube dob, shown above on the left, on eBay with the plan of coverting it to a truss tube tube. My goal was to complete it in 10 weeks so I could take it to the Shingletown Star Party in Northern California. I completed the construction a couple of days before the star party and was able to take it with me for 5 nights of glorious dark sky. What a great way to break in a new scope. Specs
