Hi Generallissimo !

"How much capable is?" The telescope or Mr.Houdart ?

Professional background of Sir Robert Houdart ( Belgia ):
"I am a mechanical engineer with a soft spot for mathematics and software development.
From 1991 to 1999 I was employed by Tractebel Engineering to analyze earthquake and impact resistance of nuclear piping systems. You can see some of the products I worked on in this web site for EditPipe.
Since 1999 my main activity has been the design and development of two web-based CRM applications: first eLink, and since 2005 Efficy. The latter application has been selected by the IT magazine Data News as one of the "Top 10 Products for 2006". "

Silvian

Amateurs use reflector telescopes for ages but for this big you have to be a very serious amateur.

I agree. I ground a reflector mirror in a kit from Edmund Scientific Company 45+ years ago. I think it was 8" but am no longer sure. Thing worked perfectly although it did take some time walking around and around the mirror during the hand-grinding process.
