Dude, I can make the mask sit anywhere you like. I just put it there because it is squarely supported on the corrector plate clamp rim, and because of the screws holding that rim on, the mask actually sits about 6mm off the glass anyway.

But to answer your question, it can be made to sit inside the tube, but right at the end by fixing 3 little tabs to the front of the mask, stopping it from going any further down the tube. The alternative, is to make it the same diameter as the outside of the tube and put a rim around it to fit over the end of the tube.
