Leo, do you mean will you be able to collimate your GSO once my adapter is installed?
I didn't mean an incapacity to collimate it once I do eventually get the adaptor when I have the funds, I mean overall collimation of the scope, from what I've read it can be a nightmare, add in poor eyesight and the fact after I've read instructions I've forgotten them by the time I've selected the tools to do the job.
My memory never used to be like that, in fact I have qualifications in a number of fields (electronics engineering, fabrication engineering, fitting and machining, hydraulics and pneumatics, IT, just to name a few (lots of years on disability and had to keep my brain sharp and always had an insatiable thirst for knowledge and an uncanny ability to solve any problem from an engineers perspective from a very young age)).
I got distinctions across the board, always top of my classes and years from primary school right through all of my studies because once I'd seen/heard/read something it was instant recall for life, or till I turned 50 anyway. Going from an eidetic memory to a failing memory has been quite the shock to my system. I could read a book on basically anything and go and do it and do it well.

I would have liked to see a little more follow up from Mike in Brisbane, I was extremely interested in the adaptor, I still am when finances permit.
At the moment I'm battling a sudden rapid decline in health I have to discuss with my doc when I see him in 2 weeks, it could be hernia, could be bowel related and I've hardly moved all day except to throw up.
I never get sick in my life!
Well, I've been sick in the head for well over 50 years, chronic migraines on a daily basis since childhood but today I was very sick. I don't like it!
