Re: [ATM] Ball Scope First Light
Bob,
Here is the latest Ronchi image of the mirror. I did go around the
barrel with COC chordal strokes with tool on top. I may have it wrong
in regards to the TUE? There is definately something going on with the
edge (or the outer zones.) The center of course needs some work.. but I
want to make sure I get the edge taken care of first.
Outside radius of curvature.

Thanks
