Adjustments

When trying to overlap the green and the red beams on the curved mirrors (keep in mind that you want 0.5mm separation between the green and the red with the red closer to you on the right mirror and further from you on the left mirror) turning the left-end-mirror's horizontal knob clockwise will move the red beam closer to you (the edge of the table) on the right curved mirror.
