Material needed:

One plastictube, one plywood board about 8mm thick, one Tripod-Photo-Screw. Total cost less than 10 US$. Depending on the Eyepiece size and diameter select a plastic waterpipe where your eyepiece fits in tigthly.

The plastictube and the plywood you get from the market for building goods. The photoscrew you get either from an old unusable tripod or buy a new one in the camera shop. When you buy the plastictube take your eyepiece with you to select the right diameter size. Into the plywood you have to drill a little slot to give the camera space to sclide to the eyepiece. Position of slot (middle, off middle) depends on your camera. On the front half of the board you connect the tube with strong adhesive tape and plasticstripes to have a tight connection. Support the tube in the correct position with glueing little wood pieces left and right of the tube.

How to connect:

First mount the eypiece into the tube (picture c), screw the camera to the profile (picture a), slide the eyepiece in the telescope and fix the eyepiece (picture b).
