Hello all

I just finished correcting my 8" f.7 mirror. The surface is smooth and
spherical except for a central hole which is not greater than the
obstruction diameter so I will mask it.

Now coming to the point, After the parabolizing should I go for full
fledged couder mask testing or go for some other method? The reason I ask
is simple, I do not have a good and stable testing setup suitable for the
sensitivity of zonal measurements and hence I feel if anything goes wrong,
the damage caused would be much greater than in the case of being
conservative.

However if such testing may be mandatory I feel I can find another place
where the conditions are better.

Please advise me what to do further and suggest any alternative testins
methods if any


Any help is highly appreciated

Thanks
