Dobsonian Tracking
Many Dobsonian telescopes use manual tracking, but there are tracking kits available for many Dobsonian telescopes. One automatic tracker is the Meade Starfinder System, which comes standard on many of its larger Dobsonian telescopes.
Dobsonian Mount
The Dobsonian Mount was invented in the 1970s by John Dobsonian. It was designed to hold massive Newtonian Reflecting telescopes securely on the ground to provide a steady image. It is often used on Dobsonian telescopes that have very large apertures - anywhere between 6- and 20-+ inches! Many Dobsonian telescopes use the Dobsonian Mount, while others use the Equatorial Mount.

There are numerous Internet Web Sites and books available to tell you how to build your own Dobsonian telescope. Since these telescopes are so elemental, they are really quite simple to build yourself, and think of the pride you'll feel when you're done!
