Making a telescope is easy but most of the time the image we get to see is inverted in an astronomical telescope. It not suitable for watching anything terrestrial and in this video, we will make a telescope which has image correction feature so that we use it to see things on the land as well.
I am using a Schmidt- Pechan Prism taken from a monocular to add this image erection feature. There are numerous ways to do it, but this is what I could come with.
Most of the supplies can be found in your local stationery, so you can make it too.

I used to make telescope way back in 1977 to 85, using convex lens for both object and eye piece, later used concave lens. The video is very good.thanks
dude... why are there very few views and likes on videos like these but a substantial fan following on videos of tiktokers. Shame on this society.
hahaha....what can I say bro. I will just keep up the good work for people who love to watch content like these. Thanks bro
@@VIDEOEPPO Yes keep working sir 🙏
Because displays of stupidity is more valued that displays of inteligence and knowledge and education. It is a shame
Great project! I really like how you were able to make it all come together with just the stuff you had on hand.
Thank you so much for taking time to comment. the Project was fun and challenging
Oh, such details. I'm floored. I wish you everything you wish for.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for explaining telescopes so well, and recycling things around your workshop!!!!
Thank you for this lovely comment
You can use glass polishing tools to clean away scratches so it would make the lens brand new again
well, it might also need the skills to do it! (Thats lot of effort and money)
Awesome build. Very commendable. Thank you for sharing!
Glad you like it!
Hello my friend.
You made the telescope for the feature of setting up images at home. good idea. thank you for sharing. Because of the Covid virus, everyone and the world are in quarantine. And nowadays we do different things. I hope the whole world gets rid of this damn virus as soon as possible.
Stay healthy and happy.
Greetings.
That was a good one. Thanks
Great work sir
You are great you deserve more & more Subscribers 🙂
🙌
thanks for all your good wishes!
This is the best way to learn many subjects which will stay in our minds for life...
your videos are very informative, actually I have a request to make, can you make some medieval astronomy tools like sine quadrant, armillary sphere, etc ?
I love it when someone gives me inputs that are challenging, Informative and new...Honestly, I have never heard of those things but I will definitely learn more, and try to make it
@@VIDEOEPPO I'm looking forward to watch your video sir : )
Guinness make good thinks...
This is the most serious effort by an Indian to make a Telescope at home in CZcams, rest all are just making FOOL out of people to get higher no of views.
Thank you so very much. You just made my day.
Inspiring build. I wish my child could meet with you. We are gonna try our hands on one.
I am sure you guys will make something amazing!
watched only for two minutes and I become your fan sir
So nice of you!Thanks a ton
My man is so underrated for the stuff he does
hahaha...its ok. we will grow slowly!
You are really talented man keep it up . Always work like that ☺️
Thank you so much 😀
@@VIDEOEPPO wellcome brother
Becoming your fan. God bless you 🙏
Humbled by your gesture. Thanks a ton
you're so under rated :( why??
I have no clue bro!...but hope that the channel picks up someday. Thanks for your support!
@@VIDEOEPPO Well I hope that too :)
Superb DIY video 💖💖💖 thank you for sharing 🙏❤️🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much 😊
U should have given a final blue print of the entire arrangement ie which lens was placed where. That would have made things easier.
You are right. I thought it was easy to understand so it didn't occur to me. Let me see if I can add a pdf
thank you sir
All the best
Great video mate.
Glad you enjoyed it
How to made long zooming scope
I thought you would show the moon at night using your telescope. Anyways it was an interesting build.. keep the good work up.
I wish I could but the footage doesn't look good and I did not make a mobile holder for it. Thanks a ton,for the support.
Sir I have a question..Does a powerful one magnifying glass lens would allow to zoom more??
Its a combination of lenses....I am sure how that will work out. May be need to experiment or learn more
Thanks brother
Always Welcome, Brother!!!
Nice work and appreciate your efforts.
So nice of you, Thanks a lot
Hello I Want To Know That Can We Use Alternative Of The Prism Cause I Can't Buy A Phone Zooming Lense! :(
And Also Can We See Moon Through This Telescope A Little Bit Clearly?
And Nice Video 💯
If you want to see the moon, Then you don't need the Prism. And yes you can see the moon. It doesn't mater if it looks inverted. But if you want to see stuff on land and not want to use prism, then you might need to get the lens i have mentioned in the video about Galilean telescopes.
Great video 👍 nice job 👏 I'm also making a telescope 🔭 thanks for the video 🌟🎆🌙☄️🌠
Cool 👍All the best
You won't able to have a good images of planets
But you can have a good image of the moon, or use it for bird watching, distance measuring using telescope, and more
exactly!
I immediately hit subscribe when you said you won't use glue. :)
Hahaha....thats a good one!
Good one
Thanks for the visit
sir i need really the mesurement and my doughter was keep on watching ur video
and so exited
I am for the Kiddo. Enthusiastic and curious mind. What measurement would you like to have?...because i have made this telescope by trial and error. Have a look at my recent comments. I have given purchase links to buy the lens
Actually it is amazing.....can you please provide a description of the materials used here in project which may help the learners like us.
By the way an amazing content immediately subscribed as i found a potential here😉
Thank you very very much. As for the list of materials, I was just working with whatever i could find. Two PvC pipes, two lens - one for optical, and one for eye piece is more than enough. To correct the image I used a prism which can be found in cheap binoculars/ monoculars
@@VIDEOEPPO thanks for this speedy reply🤓
So many instructions but its good engouh for me thank you sir!
I felt it was necessary to clear a lot of misconceptions regarding homemade telescopes. I just did not want anyone to be disappointed after making a telescope. This one will work for sure..100%. Thanks for watching. I make videos on many subjects. I will be a great gesture if you subscribe and share as well. Thanks again
@@VIDEOEPPO Back at you!
Easy method 👍🔽
Thank you!
Yo Yo... too good man this is the best I am going to build one..
welcome
I am your big fan
Really!. Oh thank you so much.
Very good video
Thanks for the visit
@@VIDEOEPPO but I want to see planets
Very very thank you sir, your advise helped me very much.But i have a question, can i use barlow lens(one concave and two convex lens) for eye piece? Please answer my question
I need to check on that. I will get back to you soon
@@VIDEOEPPO thank you for your response.I think barlow should give clear and magnifined celestial objects,approx 20x-30x magnification.By the way your telescope is too powerful.
Thanks for uploading. I had the opportunity to view a rocket launch in 2018. Unbelievable experience. I shared a pretty fun montage of the journey to my channel.
Thanks for sharing!
Please share the link, I am not able to find it
Damn you have rocked it bro. But we can't do it such easily as you did. But still I want to give a try once.
I am sure you can make it too bro. Thanks for the comment
Please give all lenses specifications
I found these lenses in toy projectors, some I found from broken camera lens...magnifying lens I got from the shop...its normal one. I was not doing it with any scientific calculations. I was just trial and error.
Any two magnifying lens , a big one and small one will work. For image correction you will prism which can be found in the zoom lens I have shown in the video. You can also find small lens in it.
i have 70x70 binocular. can i make more powerfull eyepiece for telescope from binocular parts ?
you can...but why do want to destroy the binocular. If its already broken then you repurpose it though!
Good work
Thank you so much 😀
Nice video!
Glad you enjoyed it
And the lense of magnifying glass..is it objective lense??
its a double convex lens
I made this telescope but I didn't added any prism and when I see through the telescope the moon looks overbright. Please help me
I guess, it not in focus and the image is getting smudged and thus thus looking overly bright. Try and focus something on the ground.(image will be inverted in your case though)Once you get a good grip on focus ability .. then start looking at the moon. Sometimes you may need to increase or decrease the length of the scope as well.
I need help with Barlow lens, how to get in touch with you?
mail id : videoeppo@gmail.com
Thank you sir great video but can you please tell me that which lens you have used ..I study in class 10 presently and want to make this stuff.please suggest..And by the way..nice video and explanation.
Thanks Kiddo. To make a telescope, look for two magnify glass. One Big and one small. The small one is usually higher in magnification. Place the big one away from you and the smaller one closer to eyes . start moving the bigger piece closer or farer to get the focus of the image. the image is usually inverted and this might be a little tricky. To invert the image you can use Schmidt -Pechaan prism or porro- prism. This prism is hard to find and you can get one form mobile zoom lens . Do you want amazon links?. Most components to make a home made telescope are available on amazon
@@VIDEOEPPO Please send the links please because I am a small kid so I don't have a lot of penny to spend on this stuff..please provide the links of cheap stuffs if possible...
Thank you.
And in addition to,I want to ask that how many lenses have you used...
@@VIDEOEPPO Can you please tell about or send the arrangement of lenses also please because I am getting problem in configuring the lenses..plz...

U rocked bro.. 👍👍
Thank you so much 😀

thank you!
May I know the focal length of the objective lens and where you buy from?
I really don't know about it. Most of the lens were from broken toys, broken camera lens, toy projects etc. I just fiddled around and got it to work
sir, one thing what will be the magnification of both lenses.
I am not really sure about that. Might have to calculate that. May be someone here in the community can answer your question
For telescopes, magnification of the objective and eye piece are not measured. The magnification of the telescope itself is measured as focal length of objective ÷ focal length of eye piece.
This also hardly matters in astronomical telescopes, because the eye pieces can be changed as we wish. So the diameter of the objective is taken ( as it indicates the light collecting capacity of the telescope).
You can point at the sun if you put a solar filter at the front of the telescope. Pay attention to protect your eyes by wearing solar eclipse viewing glasses.
Planning to view the annular solar eclipse today. I will build this someday but for now I have all the zoom lenses and a DSLR with solar filters for safe viewing and filming.
Hope you saw the eclipse. It was totally cloudy in part of the city!!!
@@VIDEOEPPO NO. It was totally cloudy and couldn't take a single decent shot and very disappointed.
I was planning to be in Dehradun for the event but the Corona lock downs ruined all my plans.
Good consolation I went to Ooty (specifically to avoid all the clouds by going higher in the mountain top) last Dec 26th and got very good views and snaps of the annular eclipse start to finish. It was a correct decision as it was raining heavily down in Coimbatore and the surrounding areas at that time.
I also watched the total eclipse in Aug 2017 and the annular eclipse in May 2012 both in the US.
I love space ❤️
Everyone should have their own space!
If anyone is seeing this, please contact me about adding refraction or magnification properties to my existing lens. It is a "flat horseshoe" construction, but at this point is only a clear STEP file version......
hope the community uses this opportunity.!!
How to make a telescope to see jupiter
Brother, I honestly don't know how to do that. My goal was to rectify the "inverted image" problem within a budget. Making bigger telescope is out of my budget range.
Could you make a diagram and show the placement of the lenses?
I could. But it's easy . From left to right....big biconvex lens for objective next eyepiece small biconvex lens next prism next small biconvex lens. The last lens i used was to magnify the image on prism as I was using a really small prism.
Schmidt pecham prisms are very expensive prisms
yes that's why I chose to look into some old and cheap mobile zoom lens
where can I get the monocular ,sir?
there is lot of cheep ones available on amazon. You could from local market too
Wow sir! Im very impressed with your application of the knowledge of lenses. Do you mind telling what degree you are having?(just out of curiosity 😄)
Thanks , To answer your question, are you asking about my academics or the lens?
@@VIDEOEPPO acadamic wise
@@samarthd9948 did my science till 12th. After that I did a degree in visual communication.
This is teacher from bhud aur budbak
can I use more powerful lens?
Of course you can... I used what I had...
i've Binoculars (8x40, 1000 Yards) with Coared optics i want to make a Telescope with it. will it be Possible???
what is Coared optics... not able to find it...
@@VIDEOEPPO these are just simple Porro Prism Binos. ( I appreciate you Replied Sir)
Hey, anything to help. Yes, you can use the Porro prism. The prism is only to get you an erect image. That is because celestial telescopes show an inverted image. ( For me it kind of gives a headache) . Just use two more convex or plano-convex lens... you will have a decent telescope. ( May be watch the moon)
@@VIDEOEPPO A really nice and helpful answer thank you for Quick Reply. I really Appreciate the Detailed reply
Did u also use the prism, and what was the name of the eye piece and the objective lense.
bro, i do not know the names of the lens. Both the lens are Biconvex lens is what I know. One is big and the other small. The prism is shcmid-pechan prism which I got for old mobile zoom lens
How to make telescope for moon, Jupiter..?
beyond my present abilities bro
@@VIDEOEPPO Bro I will pay for it.. If u help me to make this stuff
sir,i have brought 60mm magnifying glass but doesn't give me proper image. It has a bubble shape in its center i don't know what to do please help me if you can.
If it has a bubble it's double convex lens. It should work. It takes a bit of trial and error to determine the range and focus. What is the eye piece you are using?. Since the image appears inverted, you might need to do a few times to get it right
Where do I get the lens plz tell me
These are common lens you can find in any stationary shop. Only the prism is difficult to find
What shoud be the focal lengths of the lenses to see selestrial objects ,please rell me ,waiting for your response !
Honestly, I do not know the answer for that. The one I made was more or less like a trial and error method and I got lucky
@@VIDEOEPPO OK Thanks ! 👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Can we see moon with it ?
Of course you can....
Yes, it is
Sir how long we have to make the tube for 60mm primary lens
I know know that. I made this by doing trial and error. So I am sure about your query
What is the power of the lens
I have no idea boss. This whole project was a trial and error method.Luckily it worked
@@VIDEOEPPO so u could take measurement...
Please share product details
Except for the mobile zoom lens,I got everything I found in the house.
sir,i don't have eyepiece . but i have another 40mm convex lens. will this help.
Technically it will work.The best way to do it it mount both on a rolled chart paper or any tube and slide it looking at an object in distance.
Try it for objects at varying distances and you will get an idea on how long the length of the telescope should be. Hope this works!
how to make telescope for viewing planets and stars with proper magnification and resolution?

@@VIDEOEPPO ok i like ur videos i sm from pakistan i am rehan
Hey can I see Jupiter from this ?
Sorry ...it may not be that powerful
How many lenses did you use??
Three. The third one was for the prism
Can you please give me the list of lens and this prism with it's specific names. Shopkeeper should understand what I need specially. Please brother
Bro, its quite hard ,or expensive if you go looking for it in the shops or online. I made it using scrap parts. Anyways,
I used two double convex lens. A big one and a small one. I didn't check the focal length before installing. So I am not sure. But the bigger lens is a normal magnifying glass you get in shops and the smaller one sometimes is in the same lens holder. If not you could also get one from google card board lens. The prism i have used is from an old mobile phone zoom lens. Schmidt-Pechan prism

Only two lenses were used??
Three lens and a set of prisms. I added One lens after the prism to converge the light to my eyes
@@VIDEOEPPO thank you sir for replying....
But can't it be done using only two convex lenses??🤔
As I do not have the prism....
Aapke video me Jo magnification glass hai unse telescope banaiye plaz plz plz
us magnifying glass ka chota wala lens plastic ka bana hua hai. image clear nahi dikhta. Iseeliye use use nahi kiya

thanks for pointing it out!
instead of painting the bottle, can we stick a black chart paper instead?
Yes! Absolutely!
@@VIDEOEPPO thank you so much! great video
But not home in a magnifin glass . Yo tescope less home made
Wait, so I need a prism to see the image properly or is it for something else?
the prism erect the image upright. When you point the telescope towards the night sky, it doesn't matter if the image is upside down. But when you see anything on the ground, it looks inverted. To correct this , I have used a prism. Hope it clarifies your question
@@VIDEOEPPO It did, thanks a lot man.
