REFLECTOR: Triax flange for doors

[Brian Michalk]

My suggestion is to make sure you leave enough flange material so that 
it will accept a decent gasket for sealing against the door.
The manual may have changed since 15 years ago, but if not, either make 
a much smaller BID tape radius, or make a larger flange.
