Thanks for the comment and the constructive criticism. I'm sorry that you didn't like my video. Sadly there's not much I can do about it now. I'm also sorry that I won't be taking your advice as I enjoy making videos like this and plenty of people seem to like it. This is one of my most popular videos which says to me this format works. 366000 views speak's for itself. Have a nice day topspeed250k5

Thanks for the comment. These scopes work wonderfully. You may think they are bulky, but it stays collimated and perform perfectly. I have made many scopes in the last 20 years. Sometimes trying to make them as lite weight as possible but this makes the scope weak and they dont stay collimated. So I have settled on a design that is rock solid. They pack down small and fill in the back of a small car. Perhaps a commercial scope is more suited to your needs.

@@PeterSmithwoodsmith Nope, commercial scopes are subpar, I will have to build my own. I will use more carbon and metal on bulky parts. It will be stiff but light.

@@pangrac1 Well good luck I hope your build goes as well as you expect it too.

@@PeterSmithwoodsmith It will be work thru the mistakes and errors. As usual. 😉😂 Optical stability will be my satisfactions.

Thanks for the comment. There is a volume and mute controls on all RUclips videos.

Hello and thank you for your comment. Actually, these tools are not expensive at all. The most expensive machine I have is the panel saw but it is the cheapest panel saw you can buy on the market and with the amount of features it has it is very cheap. The Lathe, grinder, drill press, fret saw and many of the power tools are over 30 years old and are all very cheap brands like Drapper and Titan. If you show this video to any Joiner or carpenter or cabinet maker they will confirm this. I run my workshop on a very small budget. Some of the machines I built myself, like the Bandsaw and table saw. All the machines and tools in total, cost less than a good quality table saw or the like.

Hello and thank you for your comment. I am sorry you didn't like the video. This was my first build video. I had no idea what I was doing. Despite this, it is my most popular video and still does very well to this day. I had no idea people would watch it. my channel is very small and I really dont have much time to put into it. the video was made just for a bit of fun, nothing serious. It has to be said that working on projects like this is a lot of work and capturing it and editing it is a huge amount of work. Perhaps you could make a build video and show me how it's done.

@@PeterSmithwoodsmith ....Peter you are absolutely right, making a video is not easy, I tried and failed miserably about three times when I realized I didn't have the tools upstairs to get it right. I had no idea you had just gotten started when making this video and I never think of looking at the date of when they were made. I'm old now and am getting more cranky by the year, I've been around going on 75 and have worked very hard since I was a seven year old boy. Sorry, I had wrote a book but erased it cause I'm bad about running on. Please except my apology if I upset you. I was going to erase my comment but decided since you were so gracious I'm leaving it up so people can see what a fine person you are in the face of someone that should keep their mouth shut, my dad raised me that way and I carried the marks for along time growing up to prove it. I should have known better, again, sorry.

Hello and thank you for the comment. I have experimented with various matt black paints, black velvets, and black flockings I really couldn't notice the difference. it is certainly important that the inside of the telescope is matt black of some kind. My opinion is that wherever possible black flocking is adequate. Black heat shrink is fine for poles and matt black paint for everywhere else. Nothing should be left metallic or bright. the only time I find I get light reflection issues is if I'm observing the sun with a white light filter on the front of the telescope and there is light getting in the optical tube from a gap somewhere that bounces off the white light filter on to the mirror and into the eyepiece. Which is easily solved.

Thank you Marc

Thanks for the comment. If you read the video description you will read that the brass end is there to accept a rubber ferrule. Sorry, I didn't show it in the video.

Arrrr hahaha I don't think so. The walking sticks are 4 years old now and performing perfectly. Rock solid. I have lent on the handle with my full weight many times.

Hello Terrell. thank you for your comment. I only made 3 of these. I sadly have no time to make any more walking sticks.
