Bob's (Daz's) Knobs!!

[daz]

Have made a simple Bob's Knobs type arrangement for my colli-screws.

Materials are some M5 stud cut to length, and a female knob. Bits are stuck with an araldite metal compound and voila!

Collimation becomes a simple and joyeous task!!

Final bit will be to cut a semi-circular section on the back plate to allow access to the locking screws. This means I don't need to keep to taking th back plate off to collimate and losing the little screws!! (Incidentally, PC motherboard screws are ideal replacements )
