can't focus with MPCC

Well, I'd like to say I'm the proud owner of a baadar MPCC, from what I have heard they are worth it, so I just got mine today, got home clear skies ready to set up but I thought I might try and get it focused first, but I can't.

I have the camera attached to the T-ring - the MPCC in a 2 inch adapter. Problem is that my 2 inch adapter is huge and is causing a lack of in focus, First obvious solution is a smaller adapter but that will have to wait a day or 2 before I can get one.

I tried raising the primary as high it can got but it still isn't high enough, I did how ever find exactly how high it can go , turn out it's not high enough, after a bit of fiddling I got the knob back on and told myself not to do that again.

Or a low profile focuser is another thought, but I don't really want to spend that much.
Any other solutions I have missed, that can get me out imaging tonight with the MPCC?
