[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 504999, member: 256551"] What is funny is the attempt I made once:-rofl2. I carefully calculated a parabola using Excel, stuck lots of pieces of paper together to get a big printout. Used this as a template to make a frame, then cellotaped some aluminium foil to it. It was rubbish, and picked up nothing.:-rofl2 My construction skills are not up to much though. I take it that it will be a prime focus?, come on post a picture now:p, it might give me a better idea how to build another one. [/QUOTE]
