Subject: [ATM] Obelate, dang,,,

good evening to all,

I have a 12" project going on.  Tested it on Ronchi tonight and it seems 
that I have a oblate I believe.  Inside COC the lines bow in, outside, they 
bow out.  Kinda the reverse of what I am hoping to achive.  I have read that

I need to remove more of the center.  Can anybody comment on this or point 
me in the correct stroke to fix this?  I have been polishing MOT, completely

polished out, using short COC 1/8 - 1/4 strokes.  I am thinking of switching

to MOT, "W" hang over 2 inches top bottom and same on the sides.  Please let

me know if this will make a mess of things or if this will help.

thanks to all

Short strokes make it MORE oblate. Just do regular 1/3 COC or SLIGHTLY
longer.

I don't know about the W. It seems like it would be a short parabolizing
stroke so "in one's head" it makes sense.

I'm still considered a novice by most. Let them comment further.

Mitch
