I collimated my scope yesterday by eye, I used a film cannister with a hole in the end as my collimating cap.
I followed some instructions I had, it looks to be fairly centered by eye.. my mirror is centre spotted already which made it easier.
I'll do a star test tonight or tomorrow morning if the clouds part, but i'll still keep an eye out for the cheshire.
I'll take a look at that site, thanks for the link.
I won't buy the ultima just yet, i'm still trying to decide on my shopping list for xmas and I think i'd prefer to get a couple of useful things rather than just 1 premium EP.
I'll add a "buy,sell,trade" forum so people can get in touch with each other to buy and sell 2nd hand gear.
