You can be certain of a wide audience when you do release this write-up.
The part which I would hope to see included is that dealing with collimating the primary. I have committed the cardinal sin of adjusting my GSO RC8 primary mirror - out of frustration combined with ignorance.
Currently I am working with a borrowed Tak collimating scope (thanks Rick) and believe I have managed to get it just about right. I've tried that method, the "hall of mirrors" method, a Howie Glatter projection system and others and none have been very satisfactory. No doubt this is a case of a poor tradesman blaming his tools. All of this is why I await your work with truly bated breath.
