100% vs 95% collimation....

If you want to no the truth...I've yet to collimate the Moonshane... I have no center spot!

  Calv! I am shocked   Imagine how good that mirror is gonna be when spot on??

Best you get on with it buddy it's not as if you've been too busy observing of late

On my now sold and beautiful Takahashi M210 the difference between  99% and 100% was profound ! ! , at perfect collimation the subtile details on Jupiter that were seen were way better when the scope was at 100% , it was well worth spending time getting it perfect using a star test , night and day ( excuse the pun ) with the M210 and man that 8 inch scope with its 2415,, f/l could pull details like no other when spot on . It held collimation very well being so well made .

Yes get it right and you will be rewarded at those times of perfect seeing .

I haven't collimated my 10" dob for months , last I checked it was pretty close and I'm happy with the views, so I'm not really bothered if it's 100% spot on .
