Hi Jim:

Do you mean you collimated them OR made them better than they were?

Cheers,

Bill


i figured i'd use the word collimated. after they fell i was gonna throw them out, but since the views were acceptable (for what they were) i just whacked them and they straightened out pretty good. i can't say the views are better, but i can't tell the difference before or after. probably just a freak deal.
