End of assembly and retouching

Here we see the finished assembly with the two rings attached to the angle:

And here I show a detail of the whole in perspective, with detailed white on a screw cap:

Now, assemble the telescope guide within the rings he had built and this is the point:

In this image we can see the telescope main rings and the entire guide telescope mounted:

Out of curiosity, I took a photo to all tubes (telescopes and search engines) from above. It looks very interesting:

If you also want to give a personal touch and cover up the failures of construction, we can paint it blue and would have more or less like this:

Much better right?

For now it is here where I am. Now I have to test the programs and quarrel a bit with the new photographic possibilities offered by this setup. Now I'll be telling in subsequent tutorials.

I want to make special mention of certain members of the forum Hubble because thanks to the ideas that have contributed in their posts I could make this show. In particular I have relied on the explanations of the following links:

   Hello!

   Congratulations on the rings, and photos of the magazine! I see you have been helpful the "viguguías." This afternoon I have strengthened a bit because I noticed something of torque.

   Now enjoy them!

   Greetings!
