Well, here's a story. About 20 years ago, I got the idea to make a reflector telescope and ordered a mirror set from A. Jaeger. Didn't do a thing with it. Forgot about it.

I purchased a cheap store bought reflector telescope for my 12 year old son for christmas, and remembered today about the Jaeger mirrors. I found the old box and dusted it off. There is a 4 1/4" diameter mirror and the diagonal mirror. So I go on the net this very morning to catch up with Jaeger and find this notice that they are out of business. Too bad!

But I'm sure I can find other places with the other parts I need.

Ok, thanks
John
