Mark,
Did you manage to get any photos of your surgery on the PST etalon??
Was the removal of the front and rear lens easy?
How did you go about "re-centering" the etalon in the pressure rings?
Your success has put even more pressure on the PST Mod Squad!!!!!

Do you think it's something that the average - 12 year old could do safely? (my criteria for simplicity....)
