>>>>Hi all, I am wondering who everyone would pick, to be the most knowledgeable builder of telescopes.Or a great person to talk too about telescopes, with down to earth facts about scopes of all kinds,whether it be about the scopes they build, or other scopes.Without saying there scopes are the best and putting other scopes down, would that person be Markus L., Roland C., Vic M., Thomas B.
Mike P.,Bill B. Al N. I am curious you would win the battle and why.Or is there others. (It could be called the master crafter build off)
-----
I am an old S.A.A.er like Charles P. and have been reading Roland Christen's comments for quite some time. Looking at the names you have listed, it seems to me that there is no one else who is involved to such a degree with every step of the process, from the optical and mechanical design to the final figuring of the objective or mirror.
