Camera adapter help please

[pluto]

Hi all,
I'm trying to improve the way my camera (Atik 314L+) connects to my Orion filter wheel. I know what I need but I don't know what it's called and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Basically I'm looking for a single adapter that will screw into the filter wheel and screw into the camera and replace the 2 adapters that I currently use. I think I'm looking for a male m42 to male m42 ??:confused2:
Hopefully the picture explains it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Agena (in California) has a huge range of adapters but I couldn't find a T2 to T2****. I did find this solution using two adapters:

Should work but a bit expensive.

My Orion filter wheel came with the thread adaptor there I'm sure.... have you checked the old box??

A t-thread adapter and a 2 inch eyepiece tube is handy then it fits onto any scope with a 2 inch eyepiece holder.
