SCT Focuser talk,

I have an old 11:1 focuser from a refractor. The bottom end does not have the adapter.
The beveled bottom of the body measures 3.08" or 78mm.
The inside smaller diameter of the bevel measures 3.01" or 76.5mm.
The length( from the large diameter to the small diameter ) of the bevel is about .25".

The piece I need is the adapter which fits the Meade 4" SCT threads.

Let me know if you have a solution, or know what I need to purchase from an OEM vendor.

Thanks all,
Greg Harper

A couple of questions

A photo of the focuser could be helpful.

Second: am I understanding this correctly, you rent to attach this to a 4 inch meade sct like 2045?
