127mm f/9.4 OTA Construction - OTA Main Tube Flocking (objective end flocking 1)

 

Internal flocking of the main tube's objective end is complete!... (Click for enlarged view)

 

The same flocking process using ProtoStar® flocking material was done the same for the objective end of the main tube as the focuser end. With the lens of my camera focused on the flocking material, you can easily make out the individual four sections attached to the main tubes interior. Believe me, without the flash it is pretty dark in there! Well the flocking is done for the 127mm f/9.4 "Brigadier General Richard Pierce" refractor. But, I have one more shot of the inside of the main tube to show you on the next page.
