Hi a few pictures

All ribs installed

All new hardware LOOSELY fitted

Time to string the dish before anything is tightened

The above two pictures was without any tweaking the dish is in dam good shape it was 3/4mm out before i changed the string to fine fishing line and tweaked the dish to a perfect parabolic shape.
