just a quick question.. is there any tricks to collimating solo? or to u just look into the sight tube/cheshire/eyepiece then remember how it looks, quickly move to the back fo the scope turn the knob and then go back and see if it's right? Can experieced guys look at a star test and know exactly which knobs to turn and how much? Been practising star testing and keep thinking there must be another way that someones devised. Like how do those people with those big truss dobs star test collimate? Look in the eyepiece, climb down the ladder, make the adjustments, climb back up the ladder, re-centre the object(cause it would've drifted off by then), then if it still not right repeat.. it'd make for a good workout.. who needs the stair master?
