Instruction may come later but it is quite straight forward to assembly.
The current version requires to cut the brought focuser, see below.
You may find the ebay secondary mirror base is not compatible to this design. It was mean to be designed but I found another version with 3 M4 long screw that can fix on the ring. So I didnt make one.
