Collimator Use

Question about Baader Laser Colli for SCTs?
Hi, I just received a Baader Laser Collimator that I plan on using with my Celestron 8" SCT. In the pictures I have seen, and also in the manual they illustrate the collimator being used without a diagonal. But since I always use my diagonal when I am observing shouldn't I use it when I am collimating my scope?
Thanks.
if your diagonal is a good one and accurately square, it shouldn't make any difference. but since that's how you observe, you should collimate with the optical system as close to how you actually use it.
with that said, scts hold collimation well. you shouldn't need to do this very often.

Testing and Calibration of the Ibex LoRes Collimator. $115.71 The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission will provide full sky images of Energetic Neutral Atoms (ENAs) from interstellar space. The Collimator is tasked to restrict the Field of View (FOV) of IBEX, as well as repel ions up to 10keV in energy to a degree greater than 104, and electrons up to 600eVto the same degree. This thesis retests the capability of the Collimator to perform these functions, as well as improving upon the testing procedures.

Laser Genetics Designator W/Scope Mount $266.07 The ND3 Laser Designator is a precision optical lighting instrument using advanced green laser technology. The patented Rotary Optical Collimator allows full adjustment and control of beam diameter and intensity to focus light where you need it most. Rotating the collimator ring to minimum creates a bright micro beam of green laser light visible up to 3 miles. Rotating the collimator to more open settings provides plenty of illumination to light a trail at night or paint a target at up to 250 yards. Battery life allows you to handle any emergency with over 7 hours of contniuous use. Why Green Light?. Green light is the most visible to the human eye and requires the least amount of eye adjustment at night. An eye that has adapted to daytime conditions generally has a maximum sensitivity around 555nm. Compared to the color red which optical spectrum is around 630 - 650nm eye is closer to the Green region of the optical spectrum at 510 - 530nm. Animal eyes are intensely illuminated by green laser light and clear Type: Gun Scopes |

SCT Collimation-3-Laser Collimation
How do you build a telescope? I need someone to check my answer..?
I am putting up a site called www.howtelescopeswork.com In it, I talk about tips on viewing astronomy, the moon, planets, etc. I have plans that I redrew for a dobsonian telescope, multiple truss tube sizes, building a laser collimator and even a camera barn door mount. I would like any feed back on this before I send it to the printers. I am releasing this because of the year of astronomy! Oh, and don't forget to hit some of the sponser links. This helps pay for the webspace I am using up!
The first thing I looked for isn't there (or I couldn't find it quickly): how to determine the sizes, prices, quality, supplier of your mirrors.
A site map, for easy reference, might be a good idea too.
