Low Vision Division: Taking Apart a Monocular Telescope, and Putting It Back Together Again.

[@rosemariemerritt5035]

Where can I get replacement parts for my monocular? The threaded ring that keeps the viewing lens in place somehow went missing when I last cleaned it.

What brand of monocular is it? And also what magnification is that monocular? If you get that info to me I will see what I can find.

@@CharliesDesk it is a Selsi 8x21 7.2° extra short focus monocular. Thank you for your time and assistance!

You can find some threaded rings on ebay, but with the prices plus shipping you might as well get a new one. The device wont function properly unless the lens is held firmly in place. Sorry about that!

@@CharliesDesk thank you so much for taking the time to help me, I appreciate all that you've done.

No problem, sorry I couldn’t find a better result for you. In future, you might consider one of those little magnetic dishes they have at hardware stores for keeping nails and screws in place. You could put items in there while cleaning and they wouldn’t roll away.
