Hi all yesterday I decided it was time to adjust the secondary on my Meade 8" LightBridge because every time I adjusted the primary it was not quite right. Silly me.

Could anyone suggest a site that will walk me through the collimation process without using any tools other than a collimation cap? :help:

not a problem posted to equipment discussion as well and got a heads up about 'Andy's Shot Glass' which has a great how to video.

Andys shot glass is very very basic.
But get hold of a return beam laser colimator as quick as you can to get your scope back to peak performance.
Cheers Kev.
