Great, that helps.

Yes, just put the laser in the focusser so that open window points towards the primary mirror end of the scope. Then you can watch the return spot move as you adjust the primary collimating screws.

Yes, just play with that "tension" screw on the focusser - I reckon that will solve your problem. Don't go pulling your focusser apart!

Cheers

I will have to re-read that and try after work...any ideas what has gone wrong with the microfocuser?
Someone gave me this link:

Only thing is...that link looks like its for making it more slippery...I need grip?
