At last, O' dear, at last!
my Meade SCT LX90 8" has been the recipient of much of my attention and money. I have adapted the scope for low vision, low vision is another way of saying blind. So, the telescope is fairly much one of a kind.
Today after one final tweek to the Red Dot finder atop the scope I discovered that aluminium filings had fallen through the screw hole and fallen to rest beside the collect plate, inside the scope. If I remove the plate I am going to completely blow collimation.
I don't know exactly what to do, what are your suggestions? Should I attempt to remove the p,ate myself of put through an emergency call to the guys at Bintel?
Cheers
