Dobsonian Mount - Teflon??

Thanks Gordon. Handy to have a ready-made kit available like that.

Phillip Lardner, telescope maker, who is I think a subscriber to the yahoo group, should be able to source that for you prettily easliy. If you would post a mail to that group

Hi,
I'm in the process of making a dobsonian mount for my 4.5" scope the plans for which I've made using the San Fran Sidewalk Astronomers website as a reference. I've virtually all of the mount made from 15mm MDF but need one more thing....Teflon.
How easy/difficult is it to get pieces of teflon???

If it is difficult, is there another material I could use in it's place?

Thanks,

Michael
