Eyepiece cover/cap?

Holy hand grenades Batman, the new smoothie didn't come with a cover!...........Relax, Robin, let me crack a coldie and think about it for a bit............. Hello, no need for a trip to the camera store to see if a lens cover is available.........now, maybe we can sew some resistors into this as well?

Now why didn't I think of that

That's what I call ' Improvising ' .... you might have to wear gloves as the eyepiece might be too cold for you.

Stubbie holders (with the bottom removed) also make great dew shields for finder scopes.
