 Title: Mirrors closely backed when Fixed  

Throughout all the range of motion for the motors  

-→ no problem with the mirrors close together (M1-M3 and M2-M4) hitting each other.

-⇾ the problem with the pinholes hitting each other was fixed by trimming their edges a little, no issue for M1-M3 and M2-M4 now.

The mirrors were placed in the wrong orientation, it was adjusted correctly

but the issue of having the mirrors/irises hitting each other was still there.

The motors need to be moved in the longitudinal position to avoid this issue.

As shown in the image attached when placing the mirror mounts (or irises) of the very close mirrors on the mounts they hit each other. 

The motor's location needs to be changed for them not to hit each other (pushed a little to the back or the front)

This restricts the motion of the motors later on.

Not sure if this was the case before changing the plate or only after
