I bought a 13mm Nagler recently but find the eyeguard slightly too short to keep out stray light when I'm observing at home. I have a 30mm ultrawide with a similar issue, and I've owned other eyepieces in the past where the eye relief is much longer than the eyeguard (e.g. 35mm Panoptic) that made using them a bit annoying.

I've been thinking of cheap and easy ways to solve the problem and came up with this:

I took a black stubby holder and cut the bottom off. Then I just folded it to the right height and placed it over the eyepiece. It doesn't need to be attached to the eyepiece because it rests on the top of the 2" diagonal. So it can be used easily on any eyepiece.

Because my 30mm eyepiece is 2" the stubby holder fits it almost like a glove, so I'm going to leave one on this eyepiece all the time.

Problem solved for the cost of two stubby holders - just $4 at the reject shop.
