Hi all, I purchased a hybrid erecting prism (0.965" to 1.25") for using a quality 1.25" reticle eyepiece on my finderscope. The problem is I don't have enough in-focus to get focused...I plan on taking the tube to a local shop for cutting a 1/2" off as I see no other solution, could this result in other complications?
Thanks.

Nico,
This happens a lot. I have the same problem and have to use the EP that came with it. The EP has the barrel removed and a short replacement to screw into the diag. I have tried to figure out a way to put a regular diag on but no luck so far.
If you get it done let us know how you did it.

That's what I would do. Just cut down the tube. Should be fine.
