Metrology Support Models

OpenCSP_Mechanical contains several CAD models which we have found useful in designing CSP optical metrology experiments. These may be useful for the OpenCSP community in designing their own experiments, or for designing experiments to collaborate with the Sandia National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF).
