The concept of not removing the reticle screws is right on. Really small parts that are an heartache to reinsert into their threaded holes. The ole blood pressure will notice.

I only used a smallish screw driver(one that fit) along with some forethought about how to go about the job. It is remarkable how much a plan helps tasks go more better. As in most things, the first time around is the most thought provoking.

Some time I will order up some of the 0.0005" wire(0.005" was my error in typing too fast), but for now the reticle that I have is doing ok, and has about 10 or more years on it. Using what one has is not always so bad to consider.

In my old Unertl, the job was fairly simplistic really, just gotta have the patience to go easy. There still is some pride in trying things oneself I think.
