[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 886290, member: 243342"] Trust - you, Rimant and VS would make a great team! Well... a little annoyed. Started cleaning the dish when I noticed a few dings. Nothing major - a bit like shopping trolley dings you get on a car - but prompted me to string the dish. Result: warped :-ohcrap Managed to get some larger dings out from the other side and straightened the dish. Well, the strings all meet in the middle and the dish lies flat on the floor - how good the result will be remains to be seen. Got all the stickers off the dish - looks crap. Need to paint it with black paint to return it to its former glory. The sub-reflector and the feedhorn are perfect with exception of the missing cover - I'll make this myself out of something. Have two Black Ultras lying around - already converted by Trust1 - so these are a perfect fit to the feedhorn :-disco Mod: can you move this thread somewhere more appropriate, since I am getting a spare bracket for the dish from [USER=400745]@gibertini[/USER] and I'll sort my own feedhorn cover out. Would like to carry this thread for progress though :) [/QUOTE]
