I feel your pain The Tak Collimating scope has a fairly unusual M36.4P1 male thread. I have some Tak adapters that fit and I also picked up a Borg #7423 adapter which will attach the Tak Collimating scope to a male T-Thread.

I also went with an AP 2.7" imaging train so I could use the AP 27TVPH 0.75x focal reducer. I have an Atlas focuser on order which will allow me to put together my ultimate (ha ha) imaging train with the 27TVPH, a Starlight Xpress AO-LF unit and my SX filter wheel and H-18 camera.

Cheers,
Rick.
