Millie's focuser wasn't working. Dietmar asked me to have a look. Sounds like a job for...
Telescope Repair Man!
My first impression was that it was cheaply made. It seemed to slide on a rail; no roller bearings equally distributed.
Removed the knob assembly. Ah ha! There's the problem.
Tightened the rail assembly, via the four small Philips screws, with Risa's lovely screwdriver set. Good as new.
Dietmar said he'd repeat the process at home, adding some thread locker.
