@ Zerk: When you find youself in a hole, it's best to stop digging . . . . Me?? Blows my mind that people don't see this. I think some do, they just don't want to say anything. Which is sad,but you got the butt buddy thing going. Atleast you are checking. I didn't for a long time. But there is no way the tips can not be aligned and the flats,which are perpindicular to the center axis, be right, or vice versa. Question is which is easier to see.

I believe the question is whether the tips can be touching while the centerlines of the rods aren't colinear.

If the center axises are not lined up, the apexes are not touching each other, but rather the sides of the cone. As pointed out in numerous posts, touching points do not guarantee ring alignment. Points can touch, rods at an angle, not aligned. DF

This is the sorce of your problem. You have turned this into an either or situation...or a my way is best argument. If the question is which is easier to see, The answer is without question...THE FLATS. Not only is it easier to see...one can use feeler gages to tell how much. If you prefer to use the points...go for it...however, that does not make you right. On the other hand, if one chooses to use the flats...that does not make him/her wrong. We are up to 5 pages now and you can not seem to bring youself to that conclusion...and leave it alone.

You can lead an ass to water but can't make him Drink. Found the flats worked best the first time I used the system.

The device assumes 2 dimensions have been removed from the argument by assuming mounts are in the same plane, in the x axis and the same "tilt" in the y axis so if they line up in the z. Not to be used on bad receivers etc
It is a good thing First focal plane scopes are not Mobius strips and 2nd focal plane are not Klein bottles or this could turn into 5-Manifold Topology dilemma
