Jaegers 6" f/10 "GJD" OTA Construction - Main Tube (back on support tube for final coats)

 

Main Tube ready for final coats of paint - 6 (Click to see an enlarged image.) 

 

The dull finished main tube was once again placed back on the horizontal support tube so I could spray on the last remaining coats of Rustoleum Sail Blue (a.k.a. Vega Blue) paint. At the opposite end of the tube, you can make out the two (2) painters tape plugs that will prevent the paint from clogging up the holes for the counterweight support system.
