Re: [ATM] Two questions on collimation bolts



An easy way to make a solid machined flexure using the collimation bolt
itself is to make four cuts in the middle  section of the bolt. Two  of the
cuts would leave a thin rectangular cross section. A similar rectangular
cross section could be made  perpendicular to the first. The cuts could be
made with a hack saw. This would allow  bending of the bolt for a small
tilt-tip angular movement but would be rigid in the axial direction.
