Dave, thanks for posting your modification to the BLUG (again, the photos are much appreciated). I've got a couple of questions:
1. How did you cut the Kydex ring?
2. How is the Kydex ring secured to the BLUG? Is there a lip that it is resting against?
3. In your opinion, how does the BLUG + laser collimator differ from the Kendrick 2" laser collimator with the beveled face? I understand that the BLUG contains a barlow so that the spot is a larger diameter. The diameter doesn't seem to be an issue with the Kendrick due to its engraved pattern on the beveled surface.
Does the difference have more to do with the fact that the BLUG isn't physically attached to the collimator, instead being aligned with the focuser?
