Buy a professional camera and you´re a professional

I guess if you can do it yourself, you can get the crown to line up

How did you achieve Lucky Crown? Did it just line up that way, or is there a technique? Respecting, of course, the technique (if it exists) may be top-secret proprietary information.
So excited to see the coronet line up I forgot to mention, awesome tour and photos!

Thanks guys.

About the crown so is it not possible to get it where you want. When the tube is in place the crown stops where it stops.
Of course you can set the tube in another position with Loctite but it's nothing I recommend. It's no big deal how the logo
line up, there is a lot of other things in life to worry about.

Oh yeah! The "What Is The Proper Torque For Newly Installed Crown Tube" thread! I'll let someone else start that one...:)
