Tip - I fixed my own binoculars
« on: March 27, 2004, 03:38:37 PM »
I had 2 pair of armored binoculars that had been knocked out of alignment.  Not real expensive ones (< $100) but still I hated to throw them away.  On close inspection I noticed that under the armor or one pair there was a small screw that aligned the prisms.  A small turn of the screw and they were back to perfect.  Looking at the other pair, I guessed there was probably an alignment screw and carefully peeling back the armor found it.  I got them aligned as well and glued back the armor.  I now have 2 pair that are as good as new.  I wish I had known I could do this before!
