That describes exactly how to make your own. The technique I've used before drilling holes in bottles to make table lamps. I'm sure that I can devise some method of scribing two lines at 90 degrees to each other.

    Thanks.
    BaronJ,

    Here is a commercial alternative - http://www.reticles.com/ I need to re-read Dr Dick's article. It might give me some insight into reticle alignment, a subject that I'm still struggling with even after Stuart's patient help.

    Bob.

    One option might be to start with one of these and remove all that was not required. The lines might be to fine for all I know.

    It add just one more thing about scope Z length.
    In a perfect world your scope length would match the tool length which removes any tram errors(though I guess in a perfect world there wouldnt be any tram errors )

    A time thing mainly Stu. I have the IKEA carcases assembled and stacked, ready for installation so at least it looks like I've done something. I'm hoping for a bit of quality shed time over the weekend so hopefully I can fit in a fiddle with the Isoma.
