Great! I'll bet that the images are better! Hope
you are looking forward to getting all the rest
of the lenses apart and together again ...

Are the stars rounder because you have loosened the
fit of the lens elements so they are not as
distorted anymore or are the stars more asymmetrical
because you have ground off bits of lenses and
mounts and lenses are now more off-centre?

Jeepers - I can just see myself, greasy and gritty
from putting new bearings in the grape picker,
sticking a lens in the vice and taking a bit off
the edge with my trusty hand grinder!
