Hey Allan I have two Sky-watcher dobs. One is the older type with the larger than 2" focuser which requires the odd sized 1.25" and 2" eyepiece holders to fit the focuser but the newer one does indeed take a 2" eyepiece directly into the focuser as far as I can see. Please correct me if I'm wrong anyone. But it still requires the extension tube to reach focus.

Sorry my terminology wasn't quite right which may have caused some confusion as to what I was after. I thought it was strange when no one knew what I needed!

Hey Steve thanks for the offer. I measured the extension tube that I have and it's close to 50mm long so I think I will just order one of those.

Speaking of the older Sky-watcher dobs does anyone know where to get an adapter so you don't need these odd sized eyepiece holders? I thought I read a post on here about it but I've lost it.
