collaminate 8" sky watcher Dobsonian ?
Dazraz posted a topic in Getting Started General Help and Advice
Hi i am in learning how to collaminate my scope and have been watching videos on how to do it but am a bit stuck with adjusting the primary mirror - in the picture i took do i adjust the 3 screws to adjust the mirror ie turn clockwise of anti clockwise or do i have to unscrew them all and take that outer plate off - the reason i ask this is because in the videos i have been watching the screws are not screws but chrome knobs ? many thanks -
Hi i have noticed that my mirror has a thin layer of dust on it and was wondering how i can clean it without taking it off completely - it still works fine and viewing is clear so should i just leave it ?
