Optiques Fullum has the possibility to manufacture in-house large reflecting telescopes of up to 65 inches at its facility.
For these telescopes, Optiques Fullum fabricates very light custom-designed aluminum and composite structures, with “GoTo” StellarCat and ArgoNavis systems. The “FeatherTouch” ocular supports are a must.
Fullum-folded Newtonian®: For the large telescopes of 30 inches and more, Optiques Fullum developed a unique “Fullum-folded Newtonian” structure. In this configuration a parabolic primary mirror with a very short focal (F/3.5-F/4) is coupled to a secondary mirror placed much lower than normal, which will redirect the optical axis at a 17.5-degree angle instead of 45 degrees. This results in a more secure focal spot for the observer.

Optiques Fullum builds custom wooden telescopes for the stargazers who are looking for telescopes of exceptional quality and want an authentic and unique piece of art, where colour and shape play an important role.
Using innovative techniques, Optiques Fullum ensures that whatever the selected sky zone (zenith, horizon…) all movements are done smoothly and with great precision. Optiques Fullum also offers a range of options to increase the comfort of the stargazer: the installation of a handle near the eyepiece holder for a better hand grip, a tray for the eyepiece holder and an altitude slide system.
In these collector telescopes, no detail is omitted:
When placing an order for a wooden telescope, besides choosing the desired optical features, the client will also choose between different types of wood for the telescope and the accessories. Finally, he can choose the design of the exterior components.
