Jaegers 6" f/10 "GJD" OTA Construction - Crown & Flint Elements (Uncoated)

 

The crown and flint elements for the Jaegers 6" f/10 GJD Refractor (Click to see an enlarged image.)

 

This is a photo of the separated crown (right) and flint (left) elements ready to be shipped to Jeff Decker at Majestic Coatings in Clark, NJ for anti-reflective coated with Magnesium Fluoride (MGF2). Both elements were shipped to me from Surplus Shed in pristine condition. Fred at SS also performed a Ronchi test that guaranteed that I would receive and good set of optics. Once the objective comes back from Majestic, I will be spacing the elements with six small evenly spaced tabs of aluminum tape. Now off they go to Majestic Optical Coatings!
