Here are some images of the telescope assembled – perhaps it is possible to use the images to understand which plug goes where? Sharper jpegs are in /home/pth/SCIENCEPROJECTS/EARTHSHINE/JPEGS/ – they are the ‘imgXXX.jpg’ files.

I’ve also added images from the construction in Lund – those images are in same place as above, but are called imagexxx.jpg (xxx from 332 to 347).

This link shows more images from the telescope on MLO.
