Diagonal mirror size

Posted By Rich Sabo

I am making a 10" Dob and have a 2.12" minor axis diagonal. I had planned for an f6 but am having trouble finding an f6 mirror I can afford. Will this diagonal work for an f5 primary mirror? Is there a simple calculation for finding the best secondary mirror size? Thanks from a newbie
