Second question for the night - what's the best way to align two side by side OTAs?
I am trying to optically align my WO FLT110 OTA with my C9.25. These scopes sit side by side on Losmandy saddle bars. Another smaller OTA sits on the 110 - but that is simple to adjust - it sits in Losmandy O rings (see below).
The C9.25 connects right into the bar - the FLT sits in mounting brackets like

The centre of the FLT light path is about 3-5 arc minutes low on the SCT - what is the best way to raise it? Should I just cut some extra felt and use it at the bottom of one of the two brackets to try and raise the rear end of my FLT the required amount?
Many thanks,
Matthew
PS
I guess the alternate (very time consuming way is to slowly shim the bottom of one of the two brackets holding the FLT, until everything matches) but given I would have to take it all apart multiple times and paint the shimmed bottom - that would be a long process I would rather avoid!
