I would like to point out that the Saturn viewer is easy to put together
and very sturdy.  Both seem due to the precision of the cut pieces.
Assembly is an easy evening project.  I like mine a lot, and often get
compliments on it.

In fact, it's so easy to put together, let me make this offer to the people
on this list.  If you buy the Saturn Viewer kit from Rocky Mountian
Memories, I'll assemble it for free.  You would have to pay the shipping
from me to you, which I'm guessing would be $3.20 for Priority mail.

When I made mine, I filled the corner holes with colored filler, eased the
edges, sanded, stained and varnished it, and painted the inside flat black.
I'd do that on yours as well.  If you want to talk to someone who has seen
mine, just ask.

I don't have the time to do this for the whole planet, but I could do a
couple for the people on this list.  Some of you have been very kind to me,
and I'd like to return the favor.  I would hate to think someone doesn't
have a nice viewer for a simple lack of woodworking skills or time.

Please respond off-list.

Tom
