The secondary section only needs the optics fitted. The Crayford focuser fits nicely!

The truss section also needs the primary mirror fitted. So far so good!

Still some fine tuning to do.
I will provide some documentation for the project and article section at a later date.

Hi all. Not much more to do now. All that's required is to finish off the setting circles and wire up the fan.
Afterwards, I'll be fine tuning everything.
Here are some more photo's near it's completion.

I will soon write up the details and submit it to "Projects and Articles" section.

I'm hoping to have it ready to try out at the ASV Xmas Star B Q on Dec 12.
Cheers!
