My collimation with a cheap collimator still needs a tweak on the field for best results. If I was to spend money again on collimation tools, I think I'd get an artificial star generator over a collimator for around the same price.

Thanks guys. I took your advice and removed the primary mirror. Was a bit tight especially on one end so I loosened all. What I noticed after using the artificial star as theybseem better collimated. Also seems the collimation tools I sued are much more aligned than before. The real test will be on stars so fingers crossed. Thanks
