Ok i think i might have it reasonably close now, but i was a little confused by your instructions multiweb as i dont have a laser or a cheshire, so heres what i did do.

I used my handmade collimator cap (photo cannister) and popped it in the focuser.
I then adjusted the secondary until i could see the three little mirror holders on the primary mirror evenly.
I then adjusted the primary mirror until the secondary was centred.

Once i took the collimator cap off and looked through aagin, everything is pretty much good except for where i can see the reflection of my eye in the secondary mirror... It now looks like this:

Is this ok, or do you have any idea what i need to do now if not?

Cheers
