Default Need an exact description (blue prints ?) of the Lunar Laser reflectors left by Apollo.

I am looking for an exact description of the different US LRRR
experiments left on the moon. While I can find pictures and attendant
science papers on how they were used them afterwards ( I even talked
to a guy at McDonald Observatory), I am really interested in the
equivalent of a blueprint with exact dimensions of these reflectors.


A fairly obvious question no one has bothered to ask, yet, is:
_Why_ do you need the "exact dimensions" of the retroreflector ???
Are you attempting to build a scale model for a diorama, or something ???
What do you expect to learn from knowing its "exact dimensions" ???
