Ken,
Did you use the same foam, or replace it? Where would you get replacement foam? You said the old foam had lost it's resiliency. How did you collimate it without a center spot on the primary; or did you center spot the primary? How easy was it to adjust the secondary position and tilt?
It sounds like you had an interesting project!
