Bob's Knobs for Meade 16” f/10 with 6-Screw Secondary
Collimate your Schmidt Cassegrain Telescope without special tools when you use Bob's Knobs! It's easy: Just grab a Bob's Knob Collimation Thumbscrew and turn it. You can even do it while looking through the eyepiece on many scopes. You'll never drop that pesky little Allen wrench or screwdriver into the grass again. Installation is a snap with the included instructions, and you can undo the modification at any time if you wish. The factory dust cover will fit normally with Bob's Knobs installed on your secondary.

- See the FAQ and technical paper on Bob's Knobs web site for additional information on installing Bob's Knobs on Meade telescopes with SIX factory secondary screws.
- Earlier Meade 16 inch (41 cm) telescopes have three screws on the secondary housing. These scopes require different knobs. Do not use knobs for the 6-screw secondary on the 3-screw secondary. The screws on the 6-screw knobs are too short.
- An Allen wrench for removing the factory collimation screws is included with your order.
