My scope is collimated

I had tried again over the last couple of days, but no luck, and was very frustrated and confused, as turning the screws wasnt achieving anything in the end.

Rex from our astronomy club has just popped over, and took him ages to get it right, then had me trying to adjust/loosen/adjust/loosen to achieve the little red dot in the middle, with the secondary then primary/secondary then primary etc. I definitely hadnt been doing it properly!!

I will do it each time now, so I dont lose the knack .... that I am starting to attain.

Thank you all for time and patience, esp Rob ... I will reread all what has been written, and am sure it will be a lot clearer.
