Started with a bunch of these
to make a bunch of these
One of which was faced on both ends then squared on two sides then drilled for a 4mm shaft.
Then mounted off set in the 4 jaw but only using 3 of the jaws and bored out to just enter the side of the 4 mm hole.
It was then mounted between a pair of mandrels to turn off the surplus.
leaving this small curved part.
The 6mm angle has 4 x 10mm bearings that the focusser tube slides against.
These are then bolted to a small plate
A tube to hold the eyepiece is added
Then mounted to the finder scope tube
The 4mm stainless shaft moves the tube in and out by friction alone.
