[ATM] What would you do??

["John Moore" <jamooretx@web.com>]

hey All!,

OK, here's the scenario;

"John telescopenut", has just finished his first classic "8-inch F/6" mirror,
and beeing his first scope, he's hopfull, in getting excited about those first-views!,

so he's posted his results of the "mirror-tests", for youguys approval, and he anticipates
all your replies!,

Mirror tests results;
8-inch. ROC-96-inches,
5-zone masked readings show a "good figure", with a "dognut" that Uncle Ingles would be proud of!,
[very-low Ripple, and no signs of astigmatism].
Ronchi-image shows no-turned-edge!, and good-bend in Lines!
he ran his "last readings" thru sixtests, and figureXP, and they showed a strehl of ".89",
and better than 1/8th+ wavefront,,[stop laughing, its my post]
star-test shows a good round-disk, with some descent-rings!,[average-night of seeing]
so,
wishing to show the results to youguys!, he posts the results,
the only thing he's not sure-of is "whether he should continue with another
figureing-sesion? [go-for that .99 strehl!], or be content with his results!??

What would you advise??[and be honest!].

John.
