Description

After buying 2 Celestron Ultima Duo eyepieces ( 17mm and 5mm) I realised that they couldn't reach focus with the Skywatcher Quattro and they needed a tube extension. I tried the standard skywatcher 2" to 1.25" adapter but it is still too short and also does not get secured into the Baader Planetarium Clickclock adapter ring (same problem for the 2" barrel of the eyepieces)... So I thought I'd 3d print an adapter myself! I found the project on thingiverse (www.thingiverse.com/thing:2081269), I used my son's Davinci 3dprinter and voilà...in about 2 hours I got my perfectly working eyepiece adapter.
