Teeter's
Telescopes was born out of the desire to provide fellow amateur
astronomers with quality products. We use only what we deem to
be the highest quality materials in the construction of all of
our products. We have been in the Telescope Making arena for the
last five years and in that time we have seen our products showcased
at the Stellafane Telescope
Making Convention, Vermont (award pictured at right), for
innovativeness and craftsmanship. We have also been recognized
by local astronomy clubs such as ASTRA
(Astronomical Society of the Toms River Area) and STAR
(Society of Telescopy, Astronomy and Radio). It is this craftsmanship
and radical thinking that we wish to pass onto the customer.
In those five years we have constructed three 8" f/6 Dobsonians, one 12.5" f/5.5 Truss-Dobsonian, a 13.1" f/4.5 Split-Truss-Dobsonian and a 3" f/5.6 rich-field refractor. We also do restorations of classic telescopes, which have included the collectible 6" f/8 Criterion Dynascope and a 1950's vintage 3" f/16 ASTRO refractor.
In addition to the products shown on our Catalog Page, we also do custom work. If we can do it out of wood or aluminum, then we can provide what you are looking for. Email us for a quote.
