Hey Adam - thanks for your response and I appreciate your comment about decreased light entering the OTA. I compared the masks to one another and considering that the spacing of the cutouts is dictated by the number of the cutouts, doesn't look like I would lose much light at all (especially since I used a 2mag star to focus with your mask). I'll cut out the mask made with the generator and compare focus through both and report back. May be a while though as a little complication named Ike is mucking up our skies.
Cheers,
Ron
