I don't have any white paint, but I'll try a bit of tinfoil, I'm pretty sure I can get a small bit of my hat. :-) Meanwhile, I just hauled it outside for a test and it's no better. :-(
I'm familiar with astrobaby, and gary seronik's page on collimation.
I re-read astrobaby page and using a sheet of paper to baffle the tube, I adjusted the secondary to a perfect circle with all six clips visible. As I don't have the cheshire for the next stage I put in the laser and it's a good 2cm off the centre donut. If I adjust the secondary to put the beam on target, I lose sight of three clips on the right hand side of the view through the cap. Where's my hammer?
