I have been facing real hardship in adjusting the Sol'Ex SHG. Focusing its collimator is my problem. Yesterday I managed it a bit. The results are not as good as I would want and leave much more work/learning to do.
Thanks for viewing

Thanks Warren
Yes, that is my struggle. These 3D printed parts fit loosely and that creates a lot of play. Making it stay at the critical point is difficult. as I tighten the screws there is a small movement and I lose the adjustment. I wish the parts were professionally machined.
