Primary Tips

OK, now I know this could open a can of worms or worse but I am working on a 12.5” mirror flat that has been just laying around for a couple of years and I’ve decided that I should turn this oversized paperweight into a light bucket. What are some things I can do to insure this primary will give me sharp images when complete. Bear in mind that I’ve assisted on building a couple of other Newtonians but they weren’t built for performance.

Thanks for your help,

David
