Curiosity got the better of me and I thought people might also like to see how things go together in the Bintel/GSO dobs.

Here's what I found when I took the secondary apart...

The pictures show some form of rubbery resin on the edges of the mirror which I will have to sand to achieve a looser fit - I'm concerned it will just peel off making matters worse though so I will look at this carefully before I decide to do anything.

There was some tape on the plastic holder which was keeping the mirror in place as well. I'll try slipping the mirror in and out a few times to check the true fit now that this tape isn't holding it in.
