I don't want to raise the primary and am reluctant to buy a low profile focuser. I read that someone had similar issue and they were able to get the 2" adapter cut to meet the requirements. I may need the same and if someone can help me/point out where to, with the cutting part I would be very grateful.

I'll link the pics later today Once Im back home.

Take Care.
Purchased a standard GSO Crayford and put that on the SW_BD 254mm. Attached Baader MPCC to Canon 400D.
Inserted the nose piece from the MPCC into the crayford and Bobs your Uncle.

Have around 2mm of travel to achieve focus for DSO which is no problem.
