This is the problem. In this case, a crushed ocular end that has taken the ocular lens cell with it.

As with reading any kind of article, whether it be traditional paper magazine based, or in this case an electronic format, it's sometime difficult to gauge the reader'sinterest level. Peter has requested that if anyone has any questions on his current series of articles, comments or additions for inclusion in his articles under the "Collectors Comments and Feedback" section of the MKL article, or ideas for future topics, that they please leave feedback for him in the appropriate announcement thread.
