Thanks for the feedback guys, I was told this lasermate deluxe collimator doesn't require calibration as long as i don't 'drop it'..
In regards to the laser when i'm pointing it to my wall - it's not a sharp dot, but more like a rectangle shape.. when i turn around the collimator the rectangle turns so not sure if this shape is ok.
I've re-calibrated the scope earlier again and i'm getting used to it - very minor adjustments was required.. then i careful re-inserted the lasermate - paying attention to the tightness in the viewer and it was just the way i left it beforehand.. i think i may under/over tightened the lasermate on the viewer causing all sort of issues..
will definitely buy those Bob knobs for the secondary mirror - would be much safer than dropping my phillips screwdriver down the tube.
