Jaegers 6" f/10 "GJD" OTA Construction - OTA Assembly (installation of focuser backplate)

 

Focuser Backplate, Support and Crayford focuser base installed on Main Tube - 9 (Click to see an enlarged image.)

 

The assembly of the OTA continues with the installation of the focuser backplate and collimatable support that was designed by me and fabricated by Eric Moerman. I also added the black anodized 360-degree rotatable base for the GSO 2" dual speed Crayford focuser, which had to be installed before the focuser itself. The "GJD" is truly transforming into a beautiful instrument indeed.
