Oooo, thanks a ton, Al! Hopefully that's what I'll find, and all I need to do is back off the screws, reset, retighten and done. And, if I HAVE to, I can craftily ovalize the mounting holes. Crafty crafty crafty. I have a Micro Nikkor and some strong lights, so I'll set up the camera before I open sesame.
And yep, I have snapped other crosshairs so I take your warning to heart. Amazing how THICK a human hair can be -- stripped dental floss does work, and quite well, actually. Just don't leave your work in the desert sunshine.
The scope only cost me a hunnat fitty dollah when new, so it's objectively not "worth anything." But it deserves a final chance to be made right...I know machines can't be "loyal" or "faithful" but this scope sure has pretended to be.
Again, thanks. That a Nesika Bay?
