yeah, i told howie, CN does not allow a vendors response to a review to be included.

Actually, that's not exactly true - if you contacted the vendor about a problem, and if he has a response, it's good form to put it in the article, or at least summarize it in the discussion thread. This prevents misconceptions and helps people better see the intent of the product.

So - What did howie say?

in the webster telescope review, i had posted websters response to the problems i had pointed out. i was told by allister that cn does not allow vendors response, so i removed it. allister said the forums were the proper place for vendor response. tom, you may get more "leeway" than i do!

howie said he understood that the BLUG would not fit every single focuser and that he wished there was more of a standard. he also asked me to add a statement that the BLUG was patent pending; i forwarded that to the mods.

i sent my fix to howie, he is welcome to use it.

he could also make two different placements for the O-ring, one closer to the shoulder that would accomplish the same thing.

a few of you have asked about the shim. it is UNDER the o-ring, it cannot fall out. you dont even see it.
