Mating various adapters, Filter wheel etc. basically meant the system had a residual tilt of 0.012mm. Some shim stock did the rest.

Have to say I'm pretty pleased with the results.
Still a bit to take out I reckon.

In all seriousness I had not noticed any tilt in your previous images. Looks pretty flat across the field too.
