Im not to worried about putting a light shroud around the truss system i fully expected something like that to be the case. Pulling it taught should eliminate most of the sail area.

With the SW tube being already reasonably short at about 950mm and the fact that i want to gear it up for CCD+filter wheel in the future the tube will be even shorter.

Im not sure what the tube is made out of though i belive its thin steel.

how hard is CF to fabricate how expensive? I could be convinced to move the CF way if the price was right.
