The optics of the visible light cavity have been assembled. The mode matching telescope is folded through the two stirring mirrors at the corners shown in the image below, with the first lens (f=0.2m) before the first stirring mirror, and the second lens (f=0.5m) between the two stirring mirrors. The distance from the cavity to the edge of the table is 14cm. There is still some work to be done on the alignment of the cavity, as the beam does not seem to be completely centered on the two mirrors.
