Conical mirrors are not at all usual. Here's a 12.5" version. They are mounted on the mirror cell with a simple 1/2" center bolt. Very nice. |
Note the conical mirror is thinner at its edge and gets thicker and heavier at the center. The flat spot, in the center, is how it settles onto the mirror cell. |
Mounting hardware and instructions. Easy!! |

The rear of the mirror board. Rubber feet for putting the OTA on the ground |
An interesting view of the conical mirror installed on its cell. |
