Jaegers 6" f/10 "GJD" OTA Construction - OTA Assembly (ProtoStar wrapped baffle rack - 3)

 

ProtoStar flock material wrapped around Baffle Rack ready to be installed in Main Tube - a look from the front end - 3 (Click to see an enlarged image.)

 

This is a view of the ProtoStar FlockBoard wrapped baffle rack. This time, you are looking down the center from the objective end. Once installed, the flocking material's objective end will stop at the very front edge of the main tube. Even though you see the flocking material flopping over in the photo, once wrapped baffle rack is put in and positioned inside of the main tube, the end of the FlockBoard will be secured using the same hardware that will be used to attach the rear objective cell to the front end of the main tube, thereby eliminating the floppy edge. I am sure you understand, but you will see what I mean later.

But, before I insert the wrapped baffle rack into the man tube, I will first drill the holes in the main tube for attaching the OTA handles.
