Looking down the main tube from the focuser end for the Jaegers 6"
f/10 "Gelinda J. Dawson" refractor, you can see the epoxied nuts for
the Celestron counterweight system (red oval), and the Jaegers 4"
f/8.6 refractor guide scope (red circle) dovetail bars.
At this
stage, all that is left to do to the main tube is to prime and paint
it, but before that can be performed, I will need to address the most
critical aspects needing done to the inside of the "GJD"; flocking and
baffling. I will get started with flocking the instrument on the next
page. |
