[ATM] Cassegrain Baffles
I'd make baffles like this out of a couple of turns of matte-surfaced
mylar sheet, the stuff sold at art supply stores, shaped and taped into
a cylinder or cone and spray painted black. The nice way to shape these
is with double sided tape holding an overlapped area together. Because
it's plastic you can safely tape this stuff directly to the primary hole
and to the secondary rim. The weight and thermal mass are minimal.
Mylar won't stretch or sag and the stuff is nearly everything proof.
