    TSE-Z6 20-40 eyepiece Question.

    Thanks Steve. I have searched everywhere and was hoping that there was some type of adapter out there. Maybe I can make one but I'm not sure where to start. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    TSE-Z6 20-40 eyepiece Question.

    I apologise in advance if this is a particularly silly question but here it is... I have a Kowa TS-611 with a TSE-Z6 20-40 zoom eyepiece. I also have a 60mm, standard 1.25 telescope. I want to use the TS-611 eyepiece on the 1.25 telescope, but it doesn't fit because the TSE-Z6 is a bayonet type...

    Can someone help identify these please

    Sorry Optic_Nut, you're right of course. They look like they are Colmonts. I wonder why they are unmarked?

    I found that the plaster of Paris fell away easily when I used a surgical spirit and distilled water mix. I cleaned them, put them back together and the collimation was spot on first go. I have to say I really like the feel of these binoculars they have something elegant about them. I am...

    Yes there are two holes either side. They have to be pins, that makes a lot of sense. If I heat the ocular arms with a hairdryer I may be able to pull the whole ocular assembly off. Thx for being so patient.

    I want to get at the top prism. Does the eyepiece have a tolerance fit onto the centre post? Here is what I have not sure how to get the eyepiece of the centre post.

    It was plaster so with some gentle rubbing with a small screwdriver I got the first prism out.

    Sound advice as always for everyone at BF Thx. How the heck do I get rid of the plaster of Paris? I'm thinking a club hammer and a cold chisel would cause a tiny bit of collateral damage. Any tips from a Doctor out there who has experience taking off leg casts?

    Thanks for the info LPT. I am in dread about moving the cement now. But the prisms are filthy. And I'm in dread about collimation after wards. Give me an eccentric ring on the objective any day. 😢 It is in collimation now so I will clean and collimate each prism one at a time. Take one out...

    There is a white cement holding the prism in place as well as a small single screw spring plate.
