Nice! Looks like the Wyorock focuser!

There IS an off-the-shelf adapter for Mewlon to SCT!! it's called the Wu adapter:
Part No: TCD0003
Description: “WU” ADAPTER FOR CN-212/MEWLON180/MEWLON210 REPLACES CN-212 2” ADAPTER TO SCT THREAD, ADDS 1 ¼” BACK FOCUS
Price: US$ 119.95

I still believe we can get it cheaper by machining it ourself. The Mewlon thread size is M71.
This is how the Wu adapter looks like (I got it second hand from Astromart). The Wu adapter provides SCT thread to all Mewlon series. Any SCT accesories (focal reducer, crayford focuser, filter, camera adapter, etc) can be used with Mewlon. The first picture is Liuming's SCT diagonal thread directly to Mewlon 180.
