Hi All,

I've been getting my tool matched up with the blank and getting all the 
bigger pits out with 80 grit. I have figured out I'm in F 3.6 country instead 
of 4.0 so I'm trying to decide if I should just stick with the 3.6. The scope 
is going to start life as a Newtonian(with a Paracorr to correct the coma) 
and then hopefully become a Nasmyth Cass when I figure out how to make and 
test a convex secondary. Any thoughts on this plan from you folks out there?

Cheers,

Paulo
