Since I am on a short stint (7 days) house/dogsitting job, I brought along something that I felt confident I could finish in that period of time…along with the house painting work I will be doing. The ROKR telescope. I think I am going to do it much like the Vidascope I did previously. Vitascope Finished
I think it was Liset that did this a year ago. It looks very cool. Customizing? Staining, Natural?
Ooh, they would look great together.. I can picture them on a time travelers desk ![]()
@Nita_Davis I did this a while ago. Not too hard. Just fragile. Good luck!
Yes… @jeanneL . @Liset did an amazing job on this one. Mine is going to be a mix of stain and black and gold paint. Similar in ways to my vidascope
ahhh it will look beautiful! I love that idea!
It looks great. nice work
This is quite a fun kit, especially your idea to stain/paint it in black and gold is amazing
I’m curious to the end result, the vitascope turned out amazing
I think that colour choice is very pretty. Enjoy building while dog sitting @Nita_Davis
I am going to be taking my time on this one because I have other house painting work to do so it will be a few days
Thank you David. I just treat them all as if they were fragile. No broken parts yet. Wish me luck @Grey74
I think this telescope looks like a perfect project for your 7-day housesitting stay! I love that you already have an idea of how you want to build and customize it based on your Vitascope. Happy building! Enjoy!![]()

@Nita_Davis this is such a nice kit happy dogsitting … and have fun building … has your customised kit come yet ?
Mine sits on my desk at work, still one of my favorite completions. What a great model! I also had my very first Robotime customer service experince as I got agressive on the little u shaped piece that holds it to the tripod. The very last piece to the kit! After failing with glue and trying to manufacture something I checked online, paid my 5 dollars and was all set.
Let us know how it goes! No painting job on this one?
Thank you @ThaoNguyen Not much done yet, but I will get there.
Thank you very much. I am feeling like a rookie on this one. I just made a huge mistake and I’m not sure how much I have to tear apart to fix it. This one is not going well for me at all
Oh no! Thank goodness for them shipping the new part. I broke on (so far), but there was a spare for it. Wish me luck…LOL! @GWVan60
