RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Facebook? [formerly web forum]



Hugh,

The ends on the drawings are NOT drawn correctly, as you noticed.  My artistic and technical drawing abilities are somewhat...lacking.  The design does call for 2:1 ellipticals and all the math has been done to that end but, my drawings are 'eyeballed' to the shape of the ends.  Good eyes my friend.

As for the ability to see the page, sorry guys.  Didnt think about that aspect of FB when I made my original post.

Ben
