ATM stands for "Amateur Telescope Making" or "Amateur Telescope Maker". I made my first two telecopes at the age of 12. One is a reflector (Newtonian) and the other is a refractor. Now I am a professional astronomer, as well as an ATM, making my own telescopes starting from the mirror grinding. To me, making telescopes seems nothing but art.
