Wanted: extension tube

Post by Debash »

Looking for 2" long 2" diameter extension tube, added length should just be 1"....this is for the not-enough-back-travel-to-reach-focus problem in MK67..any idea if it can be made locally? Specifically looking for Lumicon 2" Long, 2" Diameter Drop-in Extension Tube.

Thanks

hmm..a cheapo method i use is just clamp the eyepiece up a little. a easier to find item would be a bigger diagonal that takes up more focus travel.

Hi Mooey, I've been doing the eyepiece adjustment method all along, but I feel it's a bit risky with heavy & premium eyepieces in there...hence looking for a permanent solution. Thanks for the diagonal idea...cheers
