Sorry for the maybe humble question (and the English) ...
Do you know any method for constructing an ellipsoid of a
rotational ellipse with an eccentricity of (hope I pointed out
well) 0.166?

Size?

Hmm ... about 6" diameter, cut at the height of the first focal point

Material?

I was thinking fiberglass ...

Computer controlled lathe available?

No, all homemade :-)

Thanks.
