To measure the diameter of tubes, it is not necessary to take them off. But you are going to take the feedarms off anyway, do not you? :confused

I will use a caliper to measure the diameter.

If I take off the feedarms they will be broken.

If I don't find replacements beforehand then I will not be removing these ones ! I will just adapt the feedhorn holder instead.

I see your point. Do you think you will be able to remove the LNB-holder without braking the feedarms?

No, the steel nuts have fused and self welded with the aluminium. Nothing will come off without breaking the arms.

Also, any idea what paint can be used on the dish. I was thinking Hammerite Smooth ?
 
Just a headsup. I'm not going to be doing anything with the dish project so in case anyone wants to buy it, let me know
