a monocentric derived, believe it or not, from starting

For the AFOV goal, I cheated and used the value an ancient
catalog page that someone, (perhaps Stephen Tonkin) put up
on the web:

I looked on the web... there actually is a source of
8 mm BK7 balls out there, so there also might be some
surplus sitting out there somewhere.
