I have just been offered a test run using the 2" catseye, so I'll wait till then.

ps. I hope I'm not the only one who finds all the different combinations and naming style on the catseye page very confusing.
You need the sight tube (TELECAT XL) to center your secondary under the focuser.
Then the cheshire (BLACKCAT XL) to align the primary.

Then the auto-colimator (INFINITY XL/K) to tweak the secondary orientation and tilt.

Of course it is an iterative process. Read thorougly the link to the PDF Jason posted and have a look at Vic Menard's primary offset technique. It's important to understand why it works.
