A 10" F4.7 for Traci G. in San Jose California.

A 10" F4.7 is taking shape for Traci G. in San Jose California. Here you see the "adjustable struts" that I use to be sure the strut lengths have been set correctly. I'll bring each of my eyepieces to focus under the stars. If necessary, I can lengthen or shorten the struts to be sure the length of the OTA is correct.

This will be a  nice compact telescope with the OTA length about 43".

More to follow.......
