Hi all, name is Mike and have recently decided to start looking up a bit more than I used to. I have had a small 114mm f/5 newtonian for a number of years now and finally decided to get something bigger settling on a 200mm f/6 dob. Have bought a few upgraded ep's to go with it and lashed out and bought a 2 inch uw 30mm eyepiece. I must say i am more than happy with the new scope. As a newbie to this i have always seated the ep's all the way into the focuser without a problem, but on placing the 2 inch ep into the focuser i found I could not get anything into focus without raising it about 10mm in the focuser. Are there spacers I can get to place on this lens? Is there a problem with the focuser or lens? Hope someone can advise as the lens when it is focusable is brilliant.
