In the tradition of amateur astronomers everywhere, Draco Productions, a Pensacola, Florida based Internet business, endeavors to provide non-mainstream resources to amateur astronomers. Draco Productions provides telescope kits and accessories, including Baader Solar Filter material and eyepieces, and complete astronomical observers' kits. A Complete Science Fair Astronomy Kit is also available for students who are interested in completing that special astronomy project. The goal of Draco Productions is to provide affordable astronomical equipment for the beginning hobbyist or for school project or classroom use. The telescopes / kits include high quality optics. The mountings, however, are strictly basic hardware stock, and this provides great savings for those who otherwise would not be able to afford a quality instrument, or for those who would prefer to see if they enjoy the hobby sufficiently to warrant investing in more expensive equipment. Amateur astronomy has always attracted the do-it-yourself crowd...those who build their own telescopes and finder 'scopes, grind their own mirrors, or make occultation timers, cross-hair reticle eyepiece illuminators, eyepiece holders, or dew caps and dust covers. If you are interested in the most ancient physical science, please take a look at what Draco Productions has to offer. If you have any questions, please feel free to write. DP has been involved in astronomical organizations, education, observation, astrophotography, astronomical (and other) education, telescope building, and other related endeavors for more than 20 years. You may order using PayPal's secure server for immediate payment. Occasionally, Draco Productions offers items for auction on e-Bay at a discounted price.

Draco Productions does not use any customer's name, address, phone number, or e-mail address for solicitation, neither is the customer's personal information shared with any second party. The management of Draco Productions is a member of CAUCE (Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email)--"spam."

Tired of "spam" clogging your mailbox? Tired of porn ads with explicit subject headers appearing in mail your children might see? As a consumer, you have the option of filtering "spam" in several ways. Sneakemail, however, is free, and allows you to put out dummy e-mail addresses that forward mail to your true e-mail address. You can create a different e-mail address each time you want to make a purchase on-line. If you get spammed at that address, it may be because the business sold or passed on your e-mail address. Some "spam" will always pass through as some businesses use systems that send e-mail to every possible variant on a theme, like dialing every number from 555-1111 through 555-2222. A lot of unwanted solicitations can be filtered, however. Check out Sneakemail to see if it fits your personal needs.

This should solve the problem, and make contact much simpler since only legitimate contacts should be received.
