Hi!

Thanks for the replies!

When I made that statement, I knew much less about the way a projector works, and what I was really remarking on was the fact that, when the warm-up full-white screen came on, there seemed to be an equal bit of "pure red" and "pure blue" each tilting up beyond the top corners of the white part. I did not know enough at that time to bring up the crosshair test pattern and to check that way. Sad So I don't know how big the change from then to now really might be...

Since I posted that message, yes, I have taken the lens housings off, in order to look directly at the tube faces as I set the rasters, and also so that I could clean the lenses. I haven't touched the actual tubes though.

When I reattached the lens housings, I made certain to put the lens spacers in the right spot, and that I put the right lenses over the same tubes they were originally on. I tightened the screws each until they felt tight enough but not too tight.

The only difference that I can think of off-hand was that the blue lens spacer was, when I first opened the case, upside-down. I turned it rightside-up.

I guess I could turn it upside-down again Question

Okay, thanks, bye!

Hi

I've re-read the DIY guide for the spring and rubber grommet mod and now that I've familiarized myself with the internal layout a bit more, it finally makes sense - and doesn't seem so hard after all Smile I think I was getting it mixed-up with a similar guide in the MoneyAss PDF that was a lot more complex... So anyway I'll just go that route!

I'll post again in this thread if it doesn't work out for some reason. Smile
