Ron, what brand is your mirror?
Rob, You have hit it in one as I suggested buy the mirror or buy the scope and modify yourself.
Collimation of a truss Dob with a mirror cell of the Kreigie design scopes Ie Obsession is a breeze
As I mentioned in your other thread my Mirror is a 16" f 4.5 Meade, bought about ten years ago.
If you buy the mirror seperatly and it is no good then that is all you have to send back, not a whole scope.
I think you can buy the optical kit from GSO
Cheers
