I have a similar scope 114mm f 8.9 short tube. I needed a focuser for another scope so I took the focuser from the 114mm and unscrewed the "intergrated" barlow lens from it. I am wondering if I put the focuser (minus the barlow lens) back onto the old 114mm scope would it then be a fast f4.5 rich field scope?
