thanks.

To round this off, a few more pics of the MK2 ota.
This time showing the front end. The existing spider casting sits snugly in the front truss ring, held in place by grub screws. I milled 2 or 3mm from the vanes, plus I was very careful to keep the mirror spacing constant and in register during this project.

Weather has not been good to say the least - some quick tests with a 5D only. No secondary dewing issues as yet.
Another two of these conversions are yet to be completed for some friends.
