Image scale

I'm currently using my ToUcam (with 1.25" adaptor) in conjunction with a 3x Televue barlow for my planetary imaging.

I'm chasing a little more image scale with this set-up rather than jumping straight to the 4x Powermate.

I need to get the ToUcam chip a little further away from the barlow's top lens. What's the best way to achieve this?

Is there an extension tube I can buy which will fit in the barlow (1.25") and accept the ToUcam at its other end, also 1.25"???

Otherwise, perhaps someone could machine a few of varying lengths (50mm, 100mm) with a set screw at one end, for which I'd be happy to pay

Cheers
