Hi Paul

Can you elaborate on this a bit more?

Did you literally just use a hacksaw to cut the 1.25" nosepiece in half, or is it something else?

How much did you take off?

How does the PST actually focus? Does it move the internal element or something? Because the eyepiece doesn't appear to move when I use the focus knob.

Cheers
