• I have some panoramic imaging papers at my web site which may be of interest to your readers.  Most of the papers are about systems I built for my own amateur use.  One of my early papers is about making axial strut reflectors out of hubcaps, etc.  It is at: http://www.versacorp.com/versalink_fld/jcarticle_fld/allsky.htm Some of the axial strut units I built are published in the August 1986 issue of Sky and Telescope magazine and the April 1987 issue of Astronomy magazine.
