focuser install questionsPosted By George Klarmann |
Hi all
I will replace the focuser on my 12.5 dob with another one soon. the uppper cage is sonotube- Are there any tricks to ensure proper alignment of the new focuser that someone is willing to share? I think the current focuser is properly aligned, and I was thinking about removing the secondary mirror and marking a spot on the far wall of the tube with my laser and using it as an alignment mark for the new focuser (both focusers are 2 inch format). does this sound reasonable? thanks
