Ah! YES that was JUST A PROP!! There is no way you can physically extend the light path of a newtonian. It is like a piece of string - bend it anywhere you like but you cant extend or shorten it.
Best idea/s if bending over is a problem is a chair and the small table base to raise it as well, just an extra foot in height is a big difference and sitting to observe is quite relaxing, plus you get to see so much more because you're not concentrating on standing up and can put all your concentration into the eyepiece. The stellarchairs are just great, worth the extra freight to get them to WA.
