    Or worse still was sat in the classroom, 4 pairs (snipers and observers....., they took it in turns on a day to day basis) around a table and as sure as god made little green apples, the lens parts or cells get mixed up.

    It's a good point raised by Simons illustrations and I think the CORRECT assembly of the Sct Reg Scope might be one of my little photographic articles. If you can hack my crap photography. Just as a matter of interest, with the separated (left separated for a good optical reason) lens pair we used to put a bit of spit into the concave of the plano concave lens to see which side of the double convex lens was the best fit. Will explain all later.

    Gentleman, many thanks. it all makes sense- seems moving the draw closest to the eye focuses images quickly. (I see that turning them makes no difference)-
