Shortest flip mirror

I want to use a flip mirror with my TV 85 or Ranger to do eclipse photography. However, both of my flip mirrors (a Meade and a Murnaghan, I believe) add too much length to the optical path, and neither scope has enough in-focus with them. It looks like I could use maybe another quarter to half inch or more in focus.

Anybody know of a flip mirror that has a shorter distance added to the optical path?
