RA Finder recommendation

I'm thinking about switching to an right angle finder. Here is the kicker. Fairly low budget and I want something with long eye relief. I was looking at the Orion finder, but I found that it only has 12mm eye relief. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Check with Gary Russell (Sponser). He makes awesome RA finders - He could probably make something for you with long eye relief.

I have the 9x50RACI finder from Orion and think it's great. But I don't worry about eye relief as I don't have glasses.

I'd definitely check around with some Amart sponsers as suggested. Someone in my local club has a 80mm Tuthill Finder, although I think these are quite rare now.
