Woodturning - The Telescope!

Serious amount of editing to get this one anywhere near the 6 minutes, I managed to get the entire build into the 6 minutes so that's good enough for me!
Main body of the telescope is made from Sycamore, all other pieces are made from a piece of wood from a Cucumber Tree.
The total magnification is around x18 with the 50mm lens and 20mm eyepiece. Each piece was dried and then treated with a heat cured resin so there is no movement in the piece at a later date.
Finished in Danish oil

That had to be the cooliest thing i have ever seen. This guy is a genius at woodworking and probably many other things. Great video.

[@JerS66]

Of all the things you made, this one is the most useful. Now you can finally see all your stellar creations. Keep up the good work!

Such a good and bad joke

[@6minuteturnings]

See what you did there..

[@albertcamus6659]

But what does chatGPT say about it?

[@fredvelez1964]

Hi Matt. I saw this on your other channel but I still say and watch this one till the end. Wonderful.

My grandfather (may he rest in peace) was a NASA astronomer. He loved making homemade telescopes for family and friends. He would have absolutely LOVED this!!

[@6minuteturnings]

Thank you John, very kind words

[@decoratedathlete]

amazing

[@athenawilson4019]

Wow. Just "wow". The degree of precision required to make a working telescope by hand is amazing. (I'm assuming it IS a working telescope, not just a display/art piece.)

[@6minuteturnings]

Fully working 👍

[@athenawilson4019]
