Here's the link to the KE focuser.

BTW, this is only useful for astrophotography. It is useless and
unnecessary for daytime photography.
If you do go through with it and build one, you may
need some tips on using it. Contact me off list if you've got any questions.

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, make
a 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.
