Today I received my corrector lenses back from Longman Optical in Tasmania and I' very happy with the coating job they did. I tried to photograph the residual reflection and it is hard, but you can see on the attached picture just how reflective the uncoated edge of the lenses is, compared to the rest of the surface. It cost around $90 per lens.

Also the primary mirror has reached the final stages of figuring. So far I did it all with the full lap, MOT, and the figure is beautifully smooth.

Tomorrow I'm off to VicSouth so there will be no progress for a few days.
