The other trick to try, Fred, if you're reluctant to cut the nose piece is a barlow lens. Unscrew the lens from the barlow and screw it in the front of the nosepiece. It doesn't increase magnification a lot but it might just get you in focus (depending on the length and shape of the nosepiece of course). It worked for me before I bought a second nosepiece and modded one specifically.
