The focuser modification was to machine the flange off the 2" to 1 1/4" adaptor so it fits further into the focuser. I replaced the thumb screw with a grub screw. This gave me an additional 10mm if inward focuser travel. I've attached some before and after photos. The machined version now has the DSI nosepiece permanently fixed (with the grub screw).
