The legendary Telrad has always held a special place in my amateur heart but, with my new refractor the space wasn’t available. After having a look at it I tried removing the telrad from its base, i noticed that the feet fit almost perfectly within a millimeter between the cradles. Problem solved, just a small strip of double sided tape, enough so I can easily pull it off for transport makes for a fine and strong fit. Whenever I need to remove it I can pull it off and apply just a 3/4 inch piece on either end in seconds. Looking from the eyepiece, the distance means I cannot see the outermost target ring but, I have never needed it anyway.
