Hi, Wayne...glad it all worked for you! Sometimes you do have to do a little careful bending. Hi, John. The star wheel will self-release when you remove the lock screw and the center screw. The focus isn't that difficult to re-establish. There are a couple of ways you can do this, but focusing on an object (preferably a vertical pole) several hundred yards away is probably the easiest and most effective. When you get it apart, you'll notice there is a stop for short focus and infinity built into the focus ring which is held to the outer element frame by three grub screws. You can also focus on the edge of the moon on a cloudless night. Assuming your mirror was correct to begin with, you'll be okay. Please let us know if you hit any snags.
