SCT fine focus knobs

Hi all,

I have a number of round plywood off-cuts from a couple of projects on the go. If anyone would like one of these to put over their SCT focus knob for greater focus control let me know. Just need the diameter of your focus knob, and the clearance between the focus knob and the visual back of the scope.

I made one of these to great effect for my C8. You'll find a write up on this in this link:

I'll make the knob & clean it up, but leave it to you to paint & finish it if and how you like.

No charge on my part - just ask you to pay postage.
