re: AOS focuser

Hello, Daniel... is this focuser adjustable? (it appears to have some means of aligning the focuser base) Also, what is the purpose of the post next to the focuser drawtube? Interesting item... Andy

I'm rebuilding an old Dall-Kirkham and this may well make a workable bottom end. Could you possibly include a couple of shots of underneath and maybe add a few basic dimensions?

is it an AOS DK? they had a Unitron one, lots of back focus, mine has another focuser fitted at the moment but it also has a lot of travel
