Woodturning - Log to Telescope

Taken sometime this one, reason I haven't posted for a few weeks as I've been working on this. 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
