Still very slow progress while waiting for parts from China, USA and Germany.....

Here is a picture of test fitting of the truss poles and UTA frame..

also a closeup of the beautiful Aurora Precision UTA Clamps which are now installed. The truss tubes are ExelComposites JTW100 full carbon and are now epoxied into the 1.25" aluminium sleeves to which the Aurora Precision clamps attach with s/s socket screws.

While waiting for Mr Postman I decided that the Telrad should match the carbon/kevlar baffle of the UTA so it now sports 0.25mm thick blue/black kevlar/carbon gloss panels attached with 3M 468MP Transfer tape.....

Next little bit will be the focuser board which will be a 6.0mm thick full carbon panel with 0.5mm kevlar/carbon sheet bonded to the outer face .....
