Charles, The astrofocuser is an excellent way to focus using long focal lengths (telescopes). It is useful for focusing on starlike pinpoints. I don't have any experience using one however. You can, however, makea knife edge focuser using a some tape, a plastic cd case, and a piece of unexposed film.It is simple and cheap to do. And the most accurate way to focus a telescope. If you are interested in making one, I will dig up a link I came across which shows you how to do it. It's really quite simple. Regards, Grant That would be nice.
